FUN FUN FUN!!

The end of summer is nearing---boohoo. But, it's been filled with lots of fun and it will hopefully keep us going until winter break!

Here's a quick recap:
June: The three older kids had camp (which cost us a small fortune!). The boys went to Panama City, FL for Camp Beach. Jake settled his doubts about salavation (PTL!) and was baptized in the ocean by our Youth Pastor and Senior Pastor. They both came back excited for the Lord and definitely changed. My daughter went to camp as well and was treated extra special given her status as a graduating 6th grader. [I still can't believe she is going into the youth group!] We had Vacation Bible School, were Nick was able to attend for the first time as a graduating Kindergartner. He felt so grown up! Miranda had her week-long stint as a LoneStar Princess with the Miss Texas Pageant and was required to dress up in formal attire and wear her tiara. I'm sure that was difficult for her...NOT! We lost my father-in-law, but we were able to spend some quality time with family which was very theraputic. The month was also filled with various basketball tournaments for my oldest.

July: The older kids have been on vacation with their father and have been able to go to Las Vegas for Jake's teams basketball tournament. Robert and I have been able to do some cosmetic changes around the house and it's looking really good! The kids come back this Friday wherein we leave for a quick vacation to NW Arkansas for my cousin's wedding. We will then spend several days with Mimi and Poppi and all the rest of the family. We will celebrate Nick's 6th birthday while we golf, swim, dance, play games, etc. with the family.

As soon as we return, we will start back to band camp for Tyler, off season basketball for Jake, volleyball tryouts for Miranda and back-to-school shopping for Nick. Not to mention that I'm starting two new courses for my schoolwork. Help!!!! LOL

We have had an AWESOME summer~
fondly,
fit
