I'm back:)

Greetings to you all, hope you are keeping cool somewhere! Hasn't it been hot lately... geesh!

Things have been quite busy here at the Miller front. We had a fabulous weekend that flew by us. We had a wedding to attend on Saturday and then we were off to see the "BIG" concert in DBQ with Papa Roach and Hinder. IT WAS AMAZING! I would have to say I thought Papa Roach RULED the place! It was the best!!!! He even brought out his little 4 year old boy and let him rock it up a bit... he got on the drums and blew us out of the water :) It was pretty darn cute!!! Late night since when we got back to town we met up with Tam and Wolfe and had a few drinks at the Rim. Whoa what a night that was... site for all... really next time you see me I have a GOOD story line for you all :) Still get sick and laugh about it all in the same breath... geesh!

Anyhow onto Sunday we took the kids to see the movie, The Simpson's. TOO CUTE!!! The best part is the 'doodle', I laughed alot! We tried out Buffalo Wild Wings for a little snack, it was good so we will go back to eat a meal... just now that we have a kitchen its nice to go home and cook. Yes we cook now and ALOT!

Monday... was 'catch up' from the weekend. I did laundry and ran some errands and well even took a nap after I got groceries.
The day flew by me WOW! just feels good to have a kitchen and things starting to actually have a place in this home. Still much to be done but its coming. We finally have a hand railing at the top of our main steps, it turned out nice! Maybe the attic railing will be next... I can only hope!

The older boys started the town soccer league this week... MItchel thinks its going to be 'hokey' since there are 18 kids out of it... and he won't get to play much... I hope that doesn't happen... since this will be his last year to get to play in the Dyersville league.... he's played in this league since he's been in Kindergarten... and now he's going into 8th grade. SERIOUSLY where does time go?

Tuesday and today Jer and I were in Chicago. We had to go take care of getting our VISAS for Brazil, since we will be traveling there at the end of the month :) I can't wait!!!! Why are we going to Brazil? Jer's boss is getting married and invited us to come out for the event, which I think is a true honor. The only down falls of all of this is ... we are missing the kids 1st FULL week of back to school :( ... but I will be here on Blade's first day back to school so that comforts me some. I will miss the boys ALOT!!!! but this will be a good vacation for me. The other fall is we are going to miss Jer's cousin's wedding in Chicago (the cousin he played with a lot when he was growing up and was probably the closest to on the Miller side)

Well I have to get some laundry going before I call it a night, I just wanted to get a blog post up so everyone knows Lis Lis is still ticking the clock :) Hope all is well with all of you!
