The Trials of a Busy Mom

Can’t hardly type, I’m so tired

Well, even amid our financial difficulties, the summer must go on.  Thursday I took the kids up to Payson lakes for day one of the Coleman family reunion.  It was fun and exciting.  If you call having a major wildfire in the next canyon exciting.  Ash was falling from the sky on us all afternoon even though that fire was a good 30 miles away.  And our ranger friend kept coming and telling us they might evacuate.  We swam, we ate, we did some crafts, and we roasted marshmallows.  The kids and I had a great time.  They wished to stay longer, but I was happy to be leaving when it was dark.  We drove down the canyon and met a police officer who was stopping people and warning them, if not totally turning them back so they couldn’t go up.  We got home about 10:30 dirty, tired, and smelling of ash.

Today was Ryan’s company party at Boondocks.  It was fun fun fun, but WAY TOO HOT!  We took Sarah and Jacob with us and fun was had by all.

Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m going to carry up a sleeping 3 year old and put him in bed, and I’m going to bed, too.

p.s.  Stay tuned for a contest announcement on Monday.

    Goodness, nothing like ash and smoke to liven up an outdoor gathering. Hope you’re resting well. Thanks for visiting SL’s “Love for Parker” and your words of encouragement.
