Update and Summer Adventures

Obviously I have not been keeping up the blog like I probably should.  So, here is my attempt at a catch up since my last post...which appears to have been back before Christmas.  As Piglet would say..."Oh d-d-d-dear!"

I know there are a lot of adventures that I haven't mentioned here...like the trip the kids took to Washington with Scott while I was at Girls Camp and the Anniversary trip Scott and I took to the Ozark's and to visit with friends in Illinois.  There was also a family camp out at Aaron and Kate's place.  That was a lot of fun!  It's been a wonderful summer so far.  Next adventure...School!
