Well....it was a great weekend here! The weather has been really beautiful and I have enjoyed spending some time outside! Eric has still been busy planting in the fields when the rain stays away....unfortunately, they still have a lot left to plant :( Which means they will be in the fields much later this fall for harvest. But, they will get it done eventually!

We hung out with some good friends this weekend! Went over to Brian and Jordan's for some patio building and a yummy dinner... Did a little boating down at Lake Santee with our friends Justin, Steph, and Josh.... Eric got up on his wake board on his first try! Go Eric! He has inspired me to want to try and learn. I am so scared to do it and I am afraid I will not be able to. But, hopefully I will get the courage up to try :)

Eric worked on the boat this weekend and put on our new WAKE BOARD TOWER! He was like a little kid on Christmas! We spent today just getting the boat ready and just hanging out in the boat. I can't wait to get it in the water! :) Doesn't it look great?

Madison is thoroughly enjoying her playground so far. She learned a new skill this weekend ...going across the monkey bars! Her swing set has the "monkey handles?" She was pretty pumped about it! Tomorrow is her last day of school! We are going to have her quite a bit throughout her summer break. That is good news for us.

Planting Cotton Candy Beans

Okay...I will make this post the official first one....I decided to start this blog after some persuasion from my friend Kasey :) at work..I thought it would be a good way (outside of facebook and myspace) to keep our family and friends updated on life in the Scott household! :) I will do my best to keep it updated as our adventure through life goes on! Enjoy!

Hello All!! Alot has been going on! Madison is in softball this summer, so we decided to take her out of gymnastics for awhile. She liked it, but it kinda seemed like we were paying $$ every month for her to go play in a gym once a week. She wasn't really learning much! Maybe we will put her back in that or dance in the fall! Here's Maddie's first game:

We had Madison with us last weekend and decided to venture out to the exciting St. Joe Fair! Besides getting to see some girl sitting next to the Gravitron (spinning spaceship ride) with a large pile of vomit underneath her feet...it was a good day!

We also went up and saw my new baby nephew, Zaden, at the hospital! Congrats to my brother, Andy, and his girlfriend Angel. He is so precious! I am very excited to be an aunt! And we had my grandma Patty and grandpa Bill out for pizza. They just got up here to Indiana to spend the summer!

Eric also planted my mother's day present in the yard! A weeping willow tree! I think they are so pretty and told him that was what I wanted for Mother Day! He had to remember why I got a Mother's Day present now (oh yeah, you are a step-mom now! haha) but he got it ordered and planted! I can't wait to see it grow!



Eric is planting beans today...finally. They haven't been able to plant more than two days the past few weeks due to all this rain we have had! So, hopefully now... Its on! Lets get those fields planted! We want to get that done and over with so we have time to get our boat out! We are looking forward to a week long trip over Eric's birthday and the fourth of July to Dale Hollow Lake! It will be incredible!

Eric also finally got Maddie's swing set all stained and we got the mulch FINALLY! It looks great! She loves it!

I have the weekend off, and in a little bit... Madison will be here! Her mom had to "work" so asked us if we could keep her! So, hopefully we will find something fun to do while daddy's in the fields. Hope everybody has a great Memorial Day weekend!
