Picture It...A Day In The Life

I'd like to say this was a typical day, but it isn't really. Things have been a little crazy around here with soccer and yard work and all the fun and busy stuff that comes with Summer. So, yesterday I aimed to have a bit more relaxing day and make sure that we all had fun....along with getting something done. There was definitely more playing than working yesterday, but you have to have those kind of days every once in a while. And why not document the day with pictures. Taken with a fabulous new camera!

I watered the garden yesterday morning while the girls were playing. I had to take pictures of my sproutlings to show that something is actually growing!
Except for this tomato plant that seems to have lost the will to live. It's a very dramatic plant.
Then we had a little poolside fun. It's not easy being us.
A sink full of dishes that did eventually get done. Of course, it just fills right back up again so you'd never know that by looking in my kitchen this morning. Another sink full of dishes that will eventually get done......
And some lunch. Mmmmmm......Cheetos.
In the afternoon, during Babs nap, we headed out to the front yard to give our flowers a little TLC.
Not doing so well.....I got some conflicting information and may have made the wrong choice....
This is an annual that we bought a couple of years ago. I don't even know what it's called but I love it because it keeps coming back year after year, against all odds.
I'm too sexy for this garden, too sexy for this garden, so sexy it hurts!
Followed by a Mother Daughter foot soak and a lotiony foot rub for Lolly.
A little Bella Dancerella action after nap time!
Cut the hair of this cute guy.
And finished of the day with a piece of the BEST CAKE EVER! Chocolate Oreo Cake.
Have you noticed a theme going on though?! I seem to be in to growing things lately. Growing the girls, the veggies, the flowers.....the messes. And my back side, thanks to the Oreo cake.

I'm thinking the Pink swimming pool was a real hit and getting to water your plants for you is the frosting on the cake for the girls. You're doing great, nothing is dead :)
