Hmmm. So finally I managed to drag myself out of bed by 6am... Having been on a Summer schedule sleeping til 9 has been the norm.. I do appreciate the quiet of early morning.. The children tucked snug in their beds..fresh coffee and the cool crispness of a fresh day.
Summer has been wonderful so far.. It's funny every Spring I fret about how to keep the kids busy during their off time.. Turns out we are much more active then I thought.. Baseball, Swim Lessons, camping, friends, Visits to grandparents and of course work..
I know I've said it before, but I feel like I need to say it again.. We are so blessed! I know I'm biased but our little family is just awesome! The kids are at such wonderful ages.. I know, I say that every year.. They are so much fun, and so interesting to talk to, and so smart I think we learn more from them then they learn from us...
Last weekend we went to Family Camp.. Saw lots of old Friends and made lots of new ones.. was a lot of fun.. we didn't have Sam and Katie with us.. Seemed odd being at Family Camp with out our family.. Brad and I had a great time but we sure missed our babies.. They would of had so much fun.. And it would have been so much more fun for us..
It's funny how when your with your babies all you want is a break, and when they are gone all you want is for them to be back home.. Wonder what it'll be like to have them all grown up one day and moved out... I think I'm getting empty nest syndrome just thinking of it...ugh!
hmmm... well anyways. Looking forward to school starting...I love Fall. The smell of wood stove smoke, the autumn leaves floating thru the air and of course Halloween...Won't be long now I can already feel a difference in the air.
Time for more coffee....
