June Photo Challenge

I found this challenge to be a bit difficult because I couldn't get a great shot of the moon. It always looked like a spotlight but it seriously is the moon. Hope you like it.

Here is a recap of Graham's Guidelines

Guidelines


Just to recap, the guidelines for the challenge are as follows:

1) Take a photograph that in some way, manner or form represents the theme of "The Moon" or "Moonlight". You are welcome to use your artistic touch to manipulate the photograph using a photopackage such as photoshop. Be as creative as you desire!!!



2) Include a brief explanation of how the photograph(s) relate to the theme. The photograph doesn't need to be outside, it can be of somebody or of something around the home.... it just needs to represent the theme of the month.



3) When you have posted your challenge, be sure to send me a link so that I can include it on my "June Challenge Entry" post at the end of the month!



4) You want to join in with the challenge but don't have a blog or website to display your photograph on? No problem, just email me copy of the image, along with your name and a brief description of how the photograph(s) relate to the theme. I will then include your entry on my "June Challenge Entry" post at the end of the month!!!!

My Day with the Kids

After a long work week getting ready for inventory I decided I wasn't going to do any house work and Imoved my counseling appointment to another day so I could just spend my day off with the kids. The night before I set the tent up in the backyard and I cooked Hobos on the grill ( Recipe on my other blog Rusin Recipe Roundup). We spent some time with Randy and when he went to bed the kids & I camped out in the backyard. I let them roast marshmallows on the grill and we fixed S'mores. We then went to bed and the next morning we ate breakfast and ran a couple of errands then I took the kids fishing and swimming at Fowler Park.






We had loads of fun and Gage caught 2 fish, sis played on the playground, we ate lunch and went swimming.




Then went home for supper and just chilled out for the rest of the evening.
I even got one heck of a sunburn on my back.

Slowly getting better

I just wanted to let everyone know that I am doing loads better now I'm trying to get caught up on housework. I'm on new meds and they are working great and counseling is doing great also. I'm slowing trying to catch up on everyone and I wanted to let everyone know that I think of all of you all the time but between housework and work ( getting ready for inventory) I have been exhausted and I tend to get real busy in the summertime. I will post as I can and hopefully I get things done. I love all of you. Thanks for all of the prayers.

I have also been trying to help out a fellow co-worker who lost his home and his belongings in the flood here. I got everyone in the house to look for clothing they don't want to give to them.

Here are some pics of my son's old school slowly getting flooded.
