Life happens

So my mom so sweetly reminded me that I have not updated since mid-June.  I told her that it has been busy:)  She hears all my stories firsthand so I am not sure what the problem is;)

June was a big ol' whirlwind.  Brendan finished kindergarten!  We spent a week at our local Vacation Bible School and then we went on an Up North excursion with our neighborhood friends.  5 adults, 7 kids, one house, 3.5 days.  We had a blast and we are still friends.  We stayed up late talking and got up early with the kids.  We played at the beach, went on nature walks, went to the park, watched movies, and yelled at the kids.  It was good to get away and unwind.

Brendan started t-ball the day we came home from Up North. He's having fun (of course) and at his last game he had 28 RBIs.  He also happened to bat 8th in the rotation (last batter runs the bases and only 8 kids) and there are no outs.  So grand slam every at bat.

I had two 31 parties the last week of June.  That made for some late nights.  It will help fund our August family trip though!

We went to fireworks last night with friends.  Lila made some new friends with the most unexpected people.  I'm glad that the weirdness of a past situation seems to be gone and people are able to move on. 

July is here and that means my birthday and Jason's right around the corner.  The first half of July is not so busy and I will gladly welcome some lazy mornings.
