SUMMER: What will this mean

We started our summer over a week ago and I have loved it! I like not having to be controlled by studies, projects, early bed times and all that school involves. The first day of summer we relaxed around the house, did some chores, played some games, made a few summer rules and just stayed home for a change. You know it's bad when your kids beg, PLEASE let's stay home even the 2 year old was begging. Then we stayed up late!!! The next day we all went and watched, Speed Racer. That was cool however we are a language sensitive family and there were 5 or so bad words :( The 9 year counted and kept telling the other's Oh don't ever repeat that word, it's a curse word and then the 3 year old kept repeating what he thought he heard was the word Ax. (of course that's not what was said on the movie) He kept saying it over and over and over. He would say my cousin C.J. has an ax. A really big ax. I really wondered what the people around us thought they heard. oh well....

Then we went and enjoyed the opening Free Weekend at the Pool. We had so much fun. My husband is such a big kid when it comes to life, and well... There were a few other boy's wanting to play with him. He is one of those that the lifeguard has been known to tell settle down in the pool, um sir.

We ended the weekend and started the new week off by celebrating family birthdays and Memorial Day at Lake Livingston with all the family. We had fun, we ate to much and stayed out to late. But it was alot of fun!

Then we had a Farewell Party for a precious family in our Church and community as they are moving away in the next week. We had a fun time visiting and letting the kids play in the park, however it is sad to loose them, but exciting to see what God is going to be doing in there life in the upcoming future. We love you and will miss you Alessa, Richard and Matthew!

My Dad came over for a few days to hang out with kids while I had a little bit of work to do. They had lots of fun with Papa. He loves to cook for them.

We are gearing up for VBS tomorrow. I am excited for this week to get here and to see what all God has in store for us this week. My mother in law will be joining us for the 1st few days of VBS.

Apparently I had a need to do a lot of talking (typing)... Sorry if I bore anyone, this is what's been going on in life of the Partie of 6.
