Mail Call: May 16 - 21

Wow! Its been a week since my last post...a week since I have even visited my blog and taken the time to read some of my favorites. Things are starting to get busy here...the girls, Patrick working (and being rained out a couple times), my dad getting hurt in a parachute jump, my job at Frugal Fabulous Finds and more....but I will save all that for another post!
