Our busy summer

     I really am alive and kicking here.  This summer we have been busy and I am just enjoying playing with the boys and being with my husband.  He was able to take off a lot of days and have had a bunch of short work weeks.  

     We took a whole month and did swim lessons for both boys  and have been off swimming away. 

     My oldest did sports camp for a week at our church and enjoyed it so much----he even dyed his hair green for spirit day (his first time doing this and don't worry it was the wash out kind).  I am so proud!  My husband use to be a punk rocker (you would never know that by looking at him now) growing up so he loved it. 

     We own a rental and decided to put it on the market so we have been busy sprucing it up.  I know the hard work will end soon.......ohhhh I pray soon.

     We camped once this year.  Time has gotten away and we have not gotten back out again.  It was an adventure, more on that at a different time.

     Where has the summer gone.  I am looking forward to the good old northwest cloudy, misty days again.  I have missed them.  This year for whatever reason I have not enjoyed the heat so much and my brown lawn.......oh to see green again.

     I have never figured out how to post pictures accept for the few you can do through homeschool blogger.  I know I can use flicker but I don't have that much knowledge in computers and I don't know a lot of the lingo.  I will figure it out soon and post a great slidshow of our summer. 

     I must confess, I have been keeping up on you all through the summer but have had to cut down on my computer time.  It sounds like most of you out there have had a busy summer like myself.  It feels good to be back.

It has been a busy summer hasn't it? My computer has been rebellious for the last couple of weeks so I'm just trying to catch up on my blog reading. Hopefully things will slow down here pretty quick.

Abiding in the Vine!

I can't believe it's already October. We'll soon be buried in snow. Yuck! The nice side of it is that I have summer to look forward to in a few months--like seven. Have a great day.
