volleyball, corn chowder, bumbleberry crisp

Had an extremely busy day .. went to work 8-4 .. I know you're wondering why I was working on a Monday .. well it's monthend .. yep the dreaded Monthend .. the time of the month that people (co-workers, bosses)just fall off the face of the earth .. such as the person you NEED to approve ONE thing so you can go on balancing .. you accounting kids know what I'm talking about ..

So work .. then pick up Linden at Nana's house .. get home and check on the stew that I made last night and put in the slow cooker this morning .. (LOVE my slow cooker) get changed and gather all my vball stuff .. make sure Linden has juice poured, grapes cut up, dinner dished out, treats on the counter .. I know that Ryan is more then capable of doing all this .. BUT I'm such an organizing freak that I have to do everything myself .. as you will see as I continue ..

Off to the first day of vball camp 6-8pm.. we were expecting 12-15 girls ... cause that's how many registered but to our surprise 24 kids show up .. don't get me wrong .. we were pumped just not really prepared .. I guess people up in the North still haven't caught on to the whole registration thing .. oh well camp was a huge succcess .. I was ran off my feet collecting money and handing out receipts but that's okay .. everyone was having fun!

Home to hear all about Daddy and Linden's night ... Daddy did such a great job .. he took Linden fishing, out for ice cream and then a little drive to see if they could find any deer .. (great, just what I need ... another redneck on my hands!) Ryan had Linden all fed and bathed when I got home.. things were good .. I'm very excited about Linden and Ry spending more time together .. Linden LOVES his Dad .. Next was story time and then sleepy-by .. well for Linden and Daddy ..

I got up .. loaded the dishwasher, put the dinner stuff away .. did some hand washing (yes , hand washing .. weird concept .. isn't it!?) Made a Bumble berry Crisp .. while that baked I loaded up the slow cooker .. this time with a nice corn chowder .. that will be tomorrow nights dinner .. then did the dishes AGAIN .. made the lunches .. got Linden's stuff ready for tomorrow .. and now at 11:08pm here I am .. making sure I get a blog in .... Life is busy .. just the way I like it!

Looking at "deers" huh? Would that be deers or dears? Ya, guess he's still a bit too young to be cruising for chicks.

It's never too early for redneck training. (speaking as the spouse of a die-hard redneck).
