Goodbye Baseball -- HELLO Football

The weather has turned slightly cooler here. I am loving that as well and hope my allergies will be gone soon! This is my FAVORITE time of the year hands down. I love that it's getting cooler and before ya know it the snow will fly. I don't so much like the snow and the REAL cold but better than the heat of the summer. YUCK! lol

Baseball season was a TOTAL flop for me so of course football is a welcome change. Not a whole lot of hype about the Steelers this year. Of course there wasn't either the year they won the superbowl. lol My DH is a Cowgirls fan so there is always some fueding going on here. Of course -- I got to laugh the last 2 years when the cowgirls choked hehe. Doesn't matter that my teams wasnt there lol His team choked!

Gonna dig out my steelers sweatshirt soon and put on some shorts and get ready for the game. Unfortunately since I am in the midwest the game is not on TV. I really need to get a dish and get the football package. lol

Enjoy the games today!

Neighbors on TV

We got home last night from registering Dustin and there was a TV crew next door. My DH being the busy body that he is lol went over to see what was going on but couldn't figure it out. So I go to the back and walked out on the deck to quickly come right back in! lol There were a bunch of people and the tv crew in the back. You could see a grill and they were talking to the kids and yadda yadda. So after a bit my DH went back out with our dog - holding him and the lady comes over and says I won the grill for having the best pork chops. So they got a new grill and a back yard BBQ lol They did the weather from their yard. They invited us over but I wasn't about to be on TV! Cool eh?

Storms!

Wow a pretty intense night for storms last night. I don't know how I managed to sleep through them but I did! lol The neighbors that are kitty corner from us in the back had their a big branch fall on the fenced behind us. The fence was JUST put up yesterday. the biggest portion of the tree is in my yard though. it took out some cable to the neighbors. Waiting for them to get home so I can go talk to them. Storms have been crazy this year so far. Hope we end up with a mild winter!

Final Vote!

Happy Independence Day!

Hope the day finds you well! Planning on heading out to my sister's later this afternoon to enjoy the evening with family and friends! They usually shoot of some fireworks but not sure they made it down to MO this year. Just have to wait and see. Most of the "good" fireworks shows were last night. We didn't go out to see any of htem. lol DH worked and Dustin wasn't overly enthused about going out.

Tomorrow -- my parents leave for their first missions trip. My mom has been packing and unpacking and repacking. lol She is worried that the rv is overloaded from all her stuff. She is a riot! I know most of it is nervous energy. They haven't done anything like this before and she is worried about leaving the family and the business behind. Kind of hard for her to let go. They will be back at the end of July for a few days and then not back again until December. Makes me kind of sad too.

Lately I have been feeling kind of blue. Nightmares about my daughter and my mom leaving and turning 40 in about a week -- guess it brings out the sadness. Either that or it's pre-menopause lol Either way it's no fun!

Next weekend we are heading down to the Royals v Mariners game in KC. We will just stay the night on the 12th -- which is actually my bday -- then come home fairly early in Sunday. My DH has to work that night!

Hope everyone has a safe and happy holiday!
