Did I mention I fixed my computer? But you can’t tell? I know, I know… I’ve only posted on a couple of days or so since I repaired the memory issue that shut my computer down. Not so good for traffic, but we’ve been having lots of fun around here. 
We’ve taken Lil Roo bowling, to the movie theatre for the first time (we saw Ice Age 3) and he did so well & enjoyed it so much that I think we are going to take him to see Up today (he and Daddy were watching the trailer on the computer last night and he seemed pretty excited about it).
The Fourth of July was also a pretty big day for us. We visited my sister and nephew and during that visit, my brother, his wife, my niece and my great-niece all came to visit. My brother (one of four brothers actually) lives locally but I don’t get to see them often and my niece and her daughter live out of state. Her daughter is about 3 months older than Lil Roo.
Later that day, Lil Roo had his first boat ride. He, Daddy, myself, and our pup met up with Lil Roo’s Uncle Paul, two of his older male cousins (and one of their girlfriends) and “Maw” (hubs’ mom). He’s been talking about going our in the boat, but had only been in a boat on dry land, so we weren’t exactly sure how it would go. He loved it. We watched the fireworks display from the middle of the river. He fell asleep on Maw’s lap on the way back in.
We planted a few sunflower seeds the other day and they’ve sprouted! I can’t wait to see his reaction as they keep getting bigger and bigger and bigger!!
The little bit of computer time I’ve had, I have been busily preparing Shake The Salt’s Back To School ’09 Guide and working on the upcoming Launch Party at Simply Sensational Divas Review. Both events will be in August and you do not want to miss either of them. If you are a review and/or giveaway blogger, you’ll want to get listed at SSDR – but you’ll have to wait for the details on that. 
I’m pretty excited at all that is going on – online and off – but my recent blogging has paid the price a little. I’m working on a few things that I’ll be sharing and I will be updating the Freebies megalist. If you know of a great freebie, deal, or coupon, pass it along to me and I’ll be sure to give you credit / link love.
Now I’m off again to start getting ready for our trip to town. What are your plans for the day… and for the upcoming weekend?
Thank you for visiting the original Shake The Salt!!
