Swallow Family Blog : July is Hot and Busy

In the mornings we spend time with the goats. In the afternoon we are at baseball. Emma and Lyla had matching Texas trip swag. Grayson is learning lots of "hard" lessons with his goat Trophy. Like to how to be brave enough to try walking again after getting dragged.

We spent a bit of the 4th of July with my family. I found a cools firework pack on sale and we all enjoyed it. The next day we started taking my grandma's kitchen apart so that others could hang new cabinets and completely remodel her kitchen! At Gramma Jean's the Razor is where it's at!

We finished up baseball and played at Wheat and Beet days. It was a great game with a great team and a great season! The boys earn ice cream by catching good balls or making enough hits. They sure like to meet the goals Tyler sets for them!

As soon as baseball ended we started swim lesson! I tell you it never ends! It's just one thing after another!

We freaking love sno-cone season! They are so delicious the just the right treat on a hot day!

We don't just walk goats at Nana and Papaw's house. We put chickens in the garden to eat all the grasshoppers.

We play with all the summer visitors and make life size pictures of ourselves and catch grasshoppers to feed the fish at Tyler's work.

But mostly, we walk goats. Now that baseball is over, we go in the cooler part of the evening to walk. It's getting closer and closer to the fair. Trophy is not getting any easier to walk. The market show will be VERY interesting, indeed.

The kids finally convinced Tyler to sleep out on the trampoline. We forgot to user bug spray. The kids were covered in so many tiny bites. I felt like an awesome mom. I gave them a bit of Benadryl the first night to help ease the sleep through the itchies. Lyla was so drowsy the longest! It took her a very long time for the Benadryl to wear off! They said it was still worth it!
