I Am A Bad Blogger

Ok, I admit that I am a horrible blogger and all of the 3 people that read or check my blog have quit checking b/c I have not updated in SOOOOO long. This will be a post full of mish-mashed information about what we have been up to lately!

I will begin with what we have been doing currently and work backwards...hope that is ok with you 3 readers out there!!!

Today we went to the best place and had Italian ice...it's here in Helena and is so good. I took a few photos but I am unable to send them to my e-mail when I am at home b/c we get NO cellphone coverage at the house. I will add them later. Anyway the name is Carmella's Italian Ice. Yummy is all I can say. The kids had blue raspberry and i had pineapple. It was a nice treat on a HOT day! If you are in the Helena area after 2 pm you should check them out. Well, we stopped there on our way to a new Helena business and I have fallen in love with this place. Wildflower Wax is a great new shop in downtown Helena that has the best smelling candles, the cutest jewelry, great clothes, and fantastic boots.

It is a great store and the owners Jennifer and Dave were so nice and welcoming to the kids and I. We even got to meet their dogs; Daphne and Charlie. I left there with a pair of earring...watch out if your birthday is coming up b/c this is my new place to buy goodies, and I left with a candle. Sydney has fallen in LOVE with a pair of boots that we will be getting tomorrow....after talking with Dad first! Plus you can even make you own candles with different scents, colors, charms, bottlecaps, etc. It is so cool! My house smells soooo good right now!! Love the new candle and it matches my bedroom!

This summer we have spent many of our days at Alabama Adventure playing at the water park. The kids have had a blast running into many of their school friends and making some new friends along the way. We go at least 2 or 3 times a week, so if you are interested...meet us at the bucket area and join in the fun!

We also went to City Stages to see 38 Special, Styx, and REO Speedwagon. It was a lot of fun and we all enjoyed ourselves. It was an adults only evening and we stayed out way too late b/c after the groups performed we went to The Rare Martini for more fun with Lava Lamp. We have seen Lava Lamp perform before at the SMAsquerade. They are great and play lots of 70's and a little early 80's music. So fun!!

38 Special takes the stage!

Melissa, Tracy, and I having a great evening!

Darby & I taking a break from all the dancing...haha!

Styx takes the stage...they did NOT play Mr. Roboto :(

REO Speewagon was up last. Or REO Stationwagon...as said by Will

The whole group of us enjoying an evening out!

Well, that should get everyone caught up on recent events. I have a few more things to post but I will do that soon. I hope that I can show you all my new plants, herbs, planters, and a few new things in the house. Also, we went to Disney in February and I have yet to blog about that so that should be upcoming. Hope you enjoy and I hope that you check out your local businesses. They are the heart and soul of our communities and we should do our best to keep them around!

Have a wonderful weekend! I will check in with you all very soon! :)
