It has been ages

It has been ages since I have posted but I have been on Facebook. Someone was 'nice' to point out that not everyone is on FB. So here I am, catching you up!

Summer in a glance:

Normally I would have June and July of but the school district hired me for extra projects for the month of June. I was able to go in as needed and still enjoy the weather. The 4th of July this year was a big deal. My dad retired, parents 35th anniv, and my dad turned 60. He thru a big sparkly bash and some family  from Nebraska made the trip down.

My brother was also there with the kids to 2 weeks. We went to the lake, Bass Pro, lots of pool time, some fishing, went to Precious Moments, and other summer activities. They are growing like weeds and it is always so much fun to have them with me. They stayed the night  and we enjoyed the pool, farmers market and had fun in town.  This year I actually was tired before them!!

My roomie was gone to Europe for a few weeks and then was back for a brief time before heading back to Hawaii'. When she got back we filled the time with enjoying every bit we could.

So that wraps things up. I will post pics ASAP.
