day three of summer vacation. so far we have golfed nine holes, fished, played tennis, rode bikes, had baseball practice three times, lost one soccer game, built half a giant retaining wall in the blazing sun, enjoyed some margaritas, signed up for tennis lessons (me) and lost DS privileges (joyful smile).

through all this chaos i have not had nearly enough time to get my work done. i got up at 5:45 this morning in an attempt to catch up. i feel a little better now, but i realize summer just might get me fired :)

i also realized that the boys need to be OUTSIDE doing something that will entertain them for long periods of time. something that doesn't involve bb guns, drowning in the lake or beating each other up.

i think i may have made a mistake. i'm not sure.

but there is a trampoline in the back of my car just waiting to be put together. the j boys are ecstatic.

doh. i should have thought before i bought.
