TIME OUT, we're moving!

We are in the final stages of box packing and have started hauling our things to our "new" (to us) house's garage. Brock was able to sell our home and buy another one all in 48 hours while I was away at a conference in Reno, NV this past June. We are moving to a house a bit larger than the one we're in now on 1.3 acres. We couldn't be more excited! And the best part is, our babysitter has agreed to come watch the boys at this house too! We are so blessed.

So, our plan for the week. Angie coming today. Brock starting school Monday. Closing on both houses Tuesday evening. Aftann starting school Wednesday. Grandma D coming Thursday. Must be out of our current house by 5pm Friday. Unpacking with the help of our family--Sat & Sun. Hopefully life as normal to begin on Monday. Nothing like a good project. ;)

Summer, Part 5

We've been able to go to the lake a few times this summer. I'm so bummed that I forgot my camera over the 4th of July, so I'm relying on my mother and sister-in-law to share their pics with me!


We took the boys on their first fishing adventure to Bass lake...

Our family...


Trying to compensate for my wishes as a youth, I packed Lunchables for lunch...and my kids were convinced I was trying to kill them. LOL! I then looked at the list of preservatives and maybe they were right. So much for trying to be "cool mom". ;)
It runs in their blood...


Cutest lil' guy on the water...if you ask his mom!





Carson's first catch!

We've had the best time with cousins!
