It's June 15th

In case you had not had a chance to look at a calendar yet today. I'll let you know, it's June 15th. 

That means:

•  Almost half of this year has gone by without me realizing it! 
• Yuliya starts school in 3 months
• Cash is three!

• I have more work to do on my new years goals
• We are now on week 16 of the kitchen repair 4 week kitchen repair
• The boys will be here in less than a week

• I read the hunger games but never saw the movie, pretty sure it's no longer in theaters
• I still haven't finished my bucket list
• And Summer is officially here!
