AHH.. Summer Vacation!

We are really enjoying our summer vacation. It has been sooo nice not to have a rigid schedule. We have just relaxed and have been taking it easy. I have been working on getting my basement clean and organized. It is a project in itself!! I am not an organizational whiz. In face, you might think I am organizationally challenged!:) I do try, though.

I finally got the kids DVD's sent back to Bob Jones Univerisity Press, today. That felt wonderful!!! It is so nice to get things crossed off the list.

It is getting late here, hope you all have a great evening a sleep well.:) Trisha

The Beginning of Our Patio

Austin stayed with me this weekend while Greg and Ellen went away. It was different having a baby for the night and I really enjoyed it. Though I am definitely out of the sleepless night routine!") Mom kept Nathan and they came over some, too. IT was a fun weekend and they are all home now.

Darrell started working on our patio this weekend. It is starting to come together. It is a LOT of work!!! Lots of digging and dirt work. Lots of moving 80 pound blocks. Oh My! THere is hard work and then there is landscaping! WOW! We will be so glad when it is over. Talk to you later. Trisha

Jeff's cousin, Dorae, married my cousin, Jeffrey. How is that for fun? I guess we are destined to have relatives from the same families!") These pictures were sent to me from my cousin, Rachel. We couldn't go to the wedding because it was a looong ways away. I was so glad to get pictures, though. Hope you enjoy them.

Lindsay learning to ride a bike

Lindsay is trying to learn how to ride a bike. It is a very scary proposition for unadventurous little girls.:)
Emily had to disect and learn all about hearts. We ordered her a sheep's heart to use for studying and disection. What fun! Maybe.
Two of the little children I watch sometimes. Aren't they adorable? They keep me hopping. I guess, trying to stay young.:)

As you can see, we are very busy and very much alive. All is well and we are only a few days from being completely done with school. Travis is really close. Emily has only a little, too. I am sooo ready to be out of school!

It's getting late here so I better run. Hopefully, I'll post better and faster next time.:) Trisha
