First a Dog, Now an X-Box... What Next??

So for as long as i can remember Clinton has wanted an X-Box, I compromised with getting a dog and thought that he would forget about wanting an X-Box...... well i was wrong. About a couple weeks ago he began looking on Craig's List for an X-Box. I would just keep quiet and tell him we needed to wait until we have more residual income. I didn't feel that this is something we need to spend money on when we have other expenses that are more important. But he kept looking and hoping to persuade me. Well it happened but I ended up compromising with him. He had to find a way to get the money he needed, this would not come out of our monthly income, he would have to find a way to earn what he needed to get the X-Box he wanted to buy and he did just that. I honestly have to say that I'm not much of a video game person but Guitar Hero is actually pretty fun.

I tell Clinton the title of my blog
Me: "honey here's the title of the blog, 'Fist a dog now an X-box, What next"
Clinton's response: " A Motorcycle"
I am married to a man who has a LOT of HUGE hobbies and wants.
Am I alone???
he bought this used off Craig's list but got an awesome deal
2 wireless remotes, 2 games, a headset, over a dozen games on the hard-drive and more.
The guitar hero he borrow from a friend but as soon as he can find another way to get $ he will go and buy the guitar.

HAPPY 4th OF JULY

As much as i love the summer AZ is actually too HOT for me... but i learn to adjust. This July 4Th it was about 105 but we had a nice breeze and that was wonderful and a little scary for lighting off fireworks about 500 yards in front of 150 people. As every year comes around the Kennedy's have the big firework show in the back pasture for all who wants to come. Just as last year it was busy and full of fun. Clinton and i were stuck doing snow cones again so i didn't get to take many pictures but the only 2 pictures of fireworks I got where blurry and more blurry!! It was a lot of fun and a little chaotic but we love doing it. I loved watching the kids patiently waiting in line as we are making snow cones and hoping that i will pick the flavor they are wanting. My response to them when i am asked... What flavor is that? I say... Red, Green, and Blue.... take your pick! :)




Blurry....
And more Blurry!!

Clinton hard at work making snow cones. I love Clay's little head poking up watching him.

This is the back pasture where the fireworks are pretty darn close, probably the closest you can get to a firework show.

I took this picture in the dark and couldn't see a think but i love Kaia's cheesy smile and Nakoria squinting because of the killer flash.

Clintons Verson of Doing Dishes!!

Don't you think Riley's tongue is so cute?? I guess he really likes chocolate-milk. YEAH.......about that........ no chocolate for dogs, well i think its myth. We had a dog growing up who ate a whole box of Andes mints and lived for years after.



Dont worry if you come over i can asure you that our glasses are washed in the dish washer!
