1. We have had an extremely busy summer, but we have had alot of fun.  I am looking forward to the structure of school, however.  I can only stand so many lazy days and so much Disney Channel.  I am aiming to start back Aug, 24. (which is my 18th anniversary!)
   
2. Spenser is selling necklaces made from can tabs.  He has an etsy shop, but so far all of his sales have come from kids and teens he runs into.   He sold 3 bracelets this week.
3. Sydney won free music lessons for the summer at our church music camp.  She was Camper of the Week and her prize was 8 weeks of lessons.  She is having fun-- she is learning piano and recorder.  She and Macy are also in a handbell class for the summer.  They are playing at a nursing home Monday night.  I guess we are a musical family-- everyone plays something and/or sing.  I love seeing them use their gifts in church.  Spenser plays guitar every Sunday and Reed plays keyboard.
4. We got a new mattress this week-- hurray!  Our backs were hurting and we inherited a king size.  So now we need a new frame; we thought ours would expand to fit it, but it doesn't.  Oh and we need new sheets.  Another perk-- I cleaned under my bed and found a ton of socks LOL!
5. I am not a gardener/farmer but I play one on Facebook.  I love the Farmtown game!  I wish real farming were that easy ;)
6. God is continuing to do amazing things in our church children's ministry.  We had over 50 in VBS, which is alot for our sized church.  And their behavior has improved so much!  Of course, new kids come in and are just as rowdy as the others used to be, so we are in a constant cycle.  Maybe eventually we will have enough "good" beavior to dilute the bad.
7. Reed won an award at the Springer Theatre Academy tonight-- most focused.  I am so proud of her-- she is a great kid!
