Cherry Hill

This summer we went camping at Cherry Hill with my family. It was so much fun and a great way to hang out with so many kids! We went to Lagoon, Cherry Hill and then the Hill Air Force Museum. There are a ton of pictures, this isn't even all of them. I am only a few months late, but finally....I can start to get caught up.

Summer's Almost Over

This summer has been one where I am not exactly sure what I have done, but I can't remember being home much, so I know it was a busy one! Things have been crazy around here. I am back to work at Primary part-time, nights. I used to hate nights but it makes the most sense to work them now. I can actually see my kids this way, I get paid more, and it is usually a slower paced shift.

Brett is off to school in Washington. It was difficult to say good-bye to say the least. The weird thing is I knew I was going to see him in just a couple of weeks and it turned out he came home yesterday for a surprise visit. Yay! I know this will all work out. I just worry about me being a walking zombie from lack of sleep. I guess I will have to start going to sleep when I put the kids down.

The kids are doing well. School starts Monday. I can't believe I am going to have a first grader. Gone ALL day. I really think having him gone and having the other one off to pre-school a couple of times a week will help me keep my sanity.

We had a great summer playing, and swimming and trying new things out. We have now almost officially completed our basement. We finished it so my bro and sister in law could move in to keep an eye on the kiddos while I work and Brett is away at school. Dan and Amanda had to put up with bringing a brand new baby home to a place not quite put together down in our basement, but they are being troopers. Their baby is darling and I hope I don't drive them crazy running down to hold her so I can have my baby fix. That, and the kids being up in her face!

This is just a quick update. I really need to get some pictures to show some of the things we have done. Until then, this will have to work.
