Thursday in our weeklong adventure

Slept super hard last night. Got up and the back aches were gone, but the sore throat was worse. Good thing a little medicine helps that! This did solidify the decision to turn the air conditioner on. I think these ear infections Ava and I keep getting are all from allergies. After a shower everything feels better anyway.
Here are the lovely faces I wake up with every morning.
Naomi sleeping beauty of the top bunk.
Stella sleeping beauty of the bottom bunk.
Rise and smile Ava.
My older girls alarm has been going off for thirty minutes and they still look like this :) It is playing happy music and not beeping. That must be easier to sleep to?
Today was bring your teacher flowers day. It was the absolute cutest thing watching all the kids run (very carefully) in to school with flowers for their teacher! You could tell they were all excited.
This is Naomi's arrangement we made together before school from flowers out of our garden. It has some peonies, salvia (which is stinky), a red rose, and for good smell a pink rose and some lavender greenery. I must say, I liked it a lot! It is the first arrangement I have ever made from our garden. So excited that the plants have finally reached that point!
Stella, Ava and I did some more drive by garage saleing (not a real word, I know) on our way to the nursery. It was winnnndy at the nursery. We picked up some vegetables to plant. A variety of peppers, tomatoes, and squash, plus a little glow in the dark stick that we thought was cool.
Thursdays are laundry day. I brought clothes up to fold and put away...they are still there, neither folded or put away. Did wash a couple of loads too. Did do some dishes. The sink is clean! It is really either or for me when it comes to dishes and laundry. Would like to break that somehow. Any ideas?
Planted some plants my Sis had sent me from her garden with Stella.
Here she is with her dirt. Notice the "gardening" glove.
BTW my sister, Resa, is where I got the idea to blog one week of our lives. Her blog is entertaining and has a WIDE variety of topics. Resa's Pieces Just check it out.
Decided it was time to rest for me. Got Stel set up to watch some shows and Ava was still asleep. Went to my room and started reading my BSF notes, of course Stel needed more food and her video reran. Her screaming woke Ava. I got her some milk and stuck some books in her bed. Went back to my bed. Stayed there too long, but sleep alluded me.
Never really got going after that. Nate came home and took Naomi out on a date. They didn't bring me any ice cream:( Naomi reminded me that it isn't good for me:) Fixed stir fry for dinner. It was good, but it is too hot to eat, even with the air on!
All three girls played out back with Nate and I am hoping to wrap this day up and get to bed!
