Well here it is again ....Summer Time.  For us it's a time of break and regrouping. To update everyone on us we have had a eventfully first couple of weeks of summer.  Jessica our dd who is 17 had her tonsils and ads out.. that was an adventure.  The dr said the older you are the worse it is on you.  After seeing her go through it at 17 ...mine will stay right where they are...LOL. She had a really rough 3 days afterward.  They had her on a morphine pump for pain in the hospital. But since being home she hasn't needed any pain killers ..Thank God cause i didn't want her to get addicted to those things. Today is her 1 week check up...pray things will be healing well.  Cause she is going nuts not being able to work or eat anything other then really soft foods..

The boys are actually doing really well with added chores since Jess can't do alot yet..It amazing me how they can be so lovely when need be but once she is healed...watch out ..>LOL Actually they are doing well. They are enjoying the time off...little do they know i'm  planning to start a lite schedule of schooling for the summer. Don't them to loose what they have learned from last year by being off for 3 months..

This summer we have put in a bigger garden..but with all this rain and storms that are running through Iowa this year it's been under water...it'll either do great or drown. We are working our way to self reliant..and learning how to cook and store food..with gas prices and food prices we need a solution some where...and it's a great teaching tool.

Ok more later must get this rear in gear.....lol
