Summer time.. almost over :(

Well, summer is winding down.. we've packed a lot in a couple of short months.. boys went to scout camp and Kids college, Austin had his band camp and youth conference... we were able to have our nephew for a couple of weeks.. a very sweet boy! He was a good influence on our boys.. loved having him :)
The twins had their birthday Tuesday.. we had a small cake and walked the mall.. payday is Friday, so we might go do gocarts or something.. we'll see.
The start of another school year.. a little scary with my small ones going into middle school.. ahhh..that scares me probably more than them. I know they will probably do great.. Jacob into everything that is sport related and Cobie maybe wanting to join band... Logan will be in 8th grade, big man on campus now and Austin-already a Junior in high school.. looking at getting his learners permit before school starts.. one of my goals. Life is flying by in record time. When you are young, you just can't wait to get older..when you're older, you wish you were young. Are we ever happy?? lol I've come to accept this life as a challenge, how many people can you help, how can you put your life to work for the Kingdom of God? You know, it's not all about us.. just something to think about. Life is so short, make an impact..a difference. Ok, off my soap box for now..   .. as far as work.. mine is changing.. I (elearning) am being combined with testing..so i will have a new boss.. and i will have to interview again.. kinda nervous. Tim ..well he isn't sure which school he will be at.. he's hanging in there like the true trooper he is. We both have jobs, and we are so thankful.
Up the twirly slide!!
The boys had a lot of fun
at Frank Brown last Friday.. we spent the day, brought a picnic and just lazed about in the sun.. boys were
lathered well with sunblock.. no sunburns! :) 
Jacob blowing out his candles,
We had to do them both seperately of course!! I made my first ice cream cake.. it wasn't pretty, but oh my, was it ever so goooood!!!

Summer, July 2010

The boys had their 11th birthday Tuesday
I just want to know where all the time goes???

July.. Lots of happenin's around here!!

Well, June went by very fast.. July was here before I knew it. My friends came down ( Natalie from Dover and Lindy from Texas ) and Melisa and Mollie (they both live here) .. we were all able to get together.. It was nice seeing them all :) Me and the twins watched fireworks with Natalie and her family.. they fixed a big rib dinner and I brought some banana pudding.. we had a good time.
Now .. July is about half over, school will be starting back before you know it.. the boys will be going to "Kids College" the last two weeks in July. We will be having our nephew stay with us as well.. It should be fun. .. 5 boys under one roof.. lol I'll have to shop in bulk this pay period!!
Tim has been gone almost this whole month so far. Definately missed him.
He is coming home Thursday night.. can't wait.
Me and Nat.. ( 2009 too I think) What movie did we go see?? I can't remember.. Oh, I think It was the Proposal.. ??
This is our Girls Night Out 2009
Where was Melisa?? Think She took the picture :)
