Summerness

So we are in full swing with summer around here! The kids are having a blast and the weather is awesome. We went camping in Tahoe last week with our church and that was so awesome because I finally have a kid (Dason) that I have to try and keep up with on a hike! This was a big deal to me, I feel like our family is getting to a place where we can all do things we enjoy. Of course we will be getting our baby girl and regress a year or two... But for now we are loving the summer fun with our "big" kids. Ky can keep up with her brothers pretty good now. We are a busy fam, even our dog has obedience training this summer. Dason and me are playing bball, Cade is playing soccer, and Brett is doing Yoga four times a week. That's right he will be one limber boy after this! He has always had such tight joints, never could sit Indian style even. So this will be great for him. Now he just needs some yoga pants, ha! This summer is full of events for our family; my mom turns sixty, my brother and his wife are expecting their first in August, my sis turns thirty, it's my 10 year high school reunion, and Caden wouldn't want me to leave out that he'll be four. We went to the party store today and he picked out a superman candle and some pirate plates. Who says you have to stick with a theme? So, until I write again I hope all your days are filled with sidewalk chalk, iced tea, bubbles, water fights, dirt, scraped knees, popsicles, watermelon, BBQ's, sunburn, good friends, and great laughs... Aren't you glad God made different seasons? Everyone I am in I feel like it's my fave!

I love reading about your family. Seasons are wonderful, they seem to come and go at just the right time. Love the summer update. And I bet Dason must be really fast for his really really fast mommy to have to catch him!

Maybe we need a bigger pool...

Catch a glimpse of our crazy family!!!

Thanks for stopping by. Wish we could share a cup of mocha together and just talk. It's hard when everyone decides to move away and start their only family after college. What's up with that? Me and Brett are working on buying our own island and then everyone we know and love could come live there and we would never be apart again. Until then, we will communicate through technology like the rest of the world. If you know Jesus we will all be reunited in heaven anyway and that's way better than the whole island plan because those cost a lot of money and Brett isn't good at saving it. I am always trying to get him to save money and not spend it but he always blows it on frivolous things. (if you know Brett, you know that's a total joke; the man could be in the middle of the desert parched and not spring for a glass of water)
