Well, I'm sure that most of you have noticed that I changed the name of the our blog. I always wanted to come up with something other than the last name thing. So the other day I was listening to Taylor Swift (not necessarily by choice, my girls LOVE her!!) sing The Best Day, and in one part of that song she sings of princesses and pirate ships, so I thought that it would be a perfect new name for our blog :) Today was another nice day, and we actually got to enjoy the outdoors today.
For some reason I just couldn't go back to sleep after Carl left for work, so I got up and started working on my lesson plans for Trey's school. After everyone got up and ate breakfast we went outside to do some chalking with sidewalk chalk. Then we went in and got dressed for Mommy's photo shoot (that would be me taking pictures of them!) By that time it was time for lunch so we came inside and Makena and Trey built a tent to lay in and watch TV. He really is going to miss them a little bit, but then again, he will enjoy getting to do stuff alone too.
We went swimming this afternoon and then came home and relaxed before starting dinner. Carlie and Trey helped me cook, but Trey was the only one who let me get his picture. He said, "I am the chef!" Ratatouille is one of his favorite movies!!
Carl is working late...still working as I'm writing this, in fact. I love this time of year, but then again, I hate this time of year. This is my time to learn a little of what it's like to be a single parent, and believe me I don't EVER want to be a single parent! Maybe tomorrow we can go to the farm and get some pictures of them harvesting. Trey is always more interested in the big trucks than the combine, but he loves to go out there ;)

I normally wait until Sept. to put this flag out, but I
was so sick of looking at the Beach Bum flag that
had been out all summer that I broke down and put
it out!! SO READY FOR RAZORBACK FOOTBALL :)
