August has been busy and we have had some computer issues which explains my lack of writing (at least it seems like a legit excuse). And the happenings are as follows:
A visit from Jeremy and Natalie, baby shower, birthday, crabbing at Natalie’s family’s cabin, lots of swimming, the beach, more birthday parties and some school shopping.
We had so much fun with Jeremy and Natalie. The kids have been having some withdrawals since they left…Josie especially. We have managed to pack in a lot of summer into just a few short weeks. And our poor little children are just beside themselves today when they heard the shocking news that we aren’t really doing anything today.
“What? Why not? I am so bored! We never get to do anything!”
“I know you guys. I feel really bad for you. I guess swimming everyday with your friends, going to the jr high over-nighter and the lake the next day, the beach, the library, ice cream almost everyday, out to dinner, crabbing, boating, renting movies, and sleeping in your fort in the family room is pretty mundane. I just wish I could give you more….”
Days until school: 14

It’s my birthday and I just wanted a nice picture with my children smiling. Guess that was asking too much.
