Fishing Fun
Sunday we were able to take the kids out on the boat to do some fishing. No one caught anything, but we still had a great time. The kids thought it was so cool that they got to "drive" the boat.

Sunshine Rocks
It seems I have been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off. (Funny expression, but it is very true. My Aunt can tell you stories!) Every day this past week has had me out and about doing something. Not that I'm complaining. Most everything I have had to do was pretty fun. Minus the few trips to WalMart. Got to spend some time with friends we haven't had a chance to be around in a while. It was fun to catch up and watch our kids play. Took the kids to Settler's Park to play in the water. At least I thought that's what we went for. Turns out, both of my kids would rather play on the playground. Fine by me. Went to Pojos for my nieces b-day party last night. Haven't been there in a while. The kids had a blast. I have a bit of a sunburn, but I LOVE that it finally feels like summer! I'm still a bit shocked that the temp has only been in the high 80's though. Interesting.

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, It's Off to Camp We Go!
This afternoon Makenzie left for a week at church camp. This is the first year she has wanted to go. So, with luggage, pillow, and snacks in tow...as well as a few butterflies, she was off! Here are a few shots I took before she left.
Loaded and ready!
Her friends Brianna and Samantha.
They travel in style!
Too cute!!!!
I can't wait to see her on Friday and hear about all the fun she had and memories she made. She took her camera, so maybe I will let her post her pictures and blog about her experience.

Birthday Girl
Today is my MIL's birthday. I am so blessed to have an amazing MIL. She is sweet, caring, giving, fun, and so much more. She raised Scott to be the wonderful, godly man he is and for that I will always be grateful. Naomi, you are more than I could have hoped for in a Mother-in-law. I love you and hope you have a fantastic birthday!

Family Fun
Scott's schedule has been a bit hectic lately, so he told the kids we would all go out on the boat Sunday afternoon and fish. We all were looking forward to some family time and the kids have been itching to get out on the boat. Unfortunately, the weather wasn't so cooperative. Seeing the black clouds in the sky, and the history of thunder storms this past week, we decided it would be best to postpone. We didn't want to take the chance of being out when the lightning or rain started. Instead we took the kids to play some black light miniature golf. We had a blast! There was hardly anyone there, so we could take our time. Caleb, despite many reminders, couldn't seem to get that you hit the ball with a soft swing. He is used to baseball, so he kept putting the club up over his shoulder and swinging it down like a bat. When he would finally hit it close to the hole he would then start pushing it to hit the ball like in pool. It was pretty funny to watch. Makenzie did great. She has some putting skills. :O) After the game we played some video games and air hockey in the arcade. My kids love air hockey and are both pretty darned good at it. I think Makenzie even beat me! Caleb had his tongue out every time he would hit the puck. Guess it helps him concentrate. After that we took them to dinner, then headed home to relax. It was a fabulous evening. We tried to get some pictures, but with the black lights they weren't that great.
