No News is Good News!

We haven't been up to much lately. In fact, this past weekend was our laziest yet! Alec did fix his bicycle tire so we cruised around the neighborhood and park last night. But I think that was really the only thing we accomplished all weekend! Weekends like that are nice, but they can make you feel a bit worthless!

Maybe we're just recovering from all the stuff we did a few Saturdays ago...

We took the kids to The Dog Days of Summer on Main Street in Broken Arrow. The merchants on Main Street were out with treats for the furkids and giveaways for the humans. It was sooo hot, but I think everyone had a good time!



Alec hung up a clothes line so we can do a little something something for the environment and our electric bill. I'm amazed how fast the clothes dry outside!

I bought Alec a Garage Butler for his birthday. We (ok - really just Alec) are notorious for not remembering whether or not we closed the garage door when we leave for work in the morning. In fact, this just happened a week before Alec's b-day. We were 1/2 way to work when Alec asks "Did I close the garage door?" I couldn't remember so we had to turn around and go home. Lo and behold, the door was open! On our 2nd attempt at our commute I thought to myself - there HAS to be something that helps close your garage door when accidently left open. Thus...The Garage Butler! This gadget can be set anywhere from 3 minutes to 1 hour so if your garage door is open for the specified time, it automatically closes! We think we've put it to use a few times since Alec installed it, but we're not sure.

And lastly, Alec put together the shelving unit his parents got him for his birthday. Yea! Our garage is starting to look like a garage and not just random piles of stuff!


Hopefully next weekend will be a bit more productive!
