Summer's officially over...

This summer seemed to fly right by. We didn't do quite as much as usual, but it seemed to stay pretty busy.

Summer 2011

• The fun started with Lagoon in June.

• We did some swimming

• We Blessed Sophie

• We celebrated Liberty's 10th birthday

• Libby & Zack Learned how to knee-board

And they got to go boating with their cousins...

• We went camping once.

• Steve scared us to death one morning & was having problems with his colitis. I ended up calling 911 & he took a ride in the ambulance to the hospital. After 5 hours in Emergency he finally had surgery & was OK. We were blessed once again!
  

• We celebrated Zack's 8th birthday & baptism.

I seriously can't believe he is eight!

• And of course we truly enjoyed our late nights & sleeping in!

But all great things come to an end & school started today!
Off to our next adventure...homework!


Libby is in 5th grade & has Ms. Dillon


Zack is in 3rd grade & has Ms. Law

We celebrated his birthday for a few days...it started the night before with dinner at Texas Roadhouse.
