Summer update

Sorry folks for the long delay in blog world. I do have pictures to post, just not the time to sift through them. Chad is home for another week and then back to the boat. Work on the house has come to a halt so he can have at least one bit of summer with the kids before they go back to school, August 6th I believe. I am heading out tomorrow for Houston to see my friend Jen. She is about to give birth to her first child. Say a prayer for her please, she is not due until August 19th but has been in the hospital about 3 weeks now. Summer is going pretty smooth thus far. I started it off with Strep so the girls went to Meridian to hang with the grandparents. A visit from my Sis-in-law and her babies followed (yes I do have pictures to post later). Then a visit from my cousin and Wilson. Before you knew it Chad was home. The month flew by. Took the girls to get hair cuts. I thought Anna was gonna puke everywhere (she has a touch of anxiety), but she ended up with the cute stacked bop like she wanted and was happy. Now she really looks as though she will be in Middle school. She has spent most of her days in the pool when not doing chores. That is the best money we have spent. The pool gets her off the couch and moving. We love it, she loves it, Dera on the other hand is just to cool to be bothered with such things. Teenagers! If it isn't the phone, computer, shopping, or dancing, leave her alone she says, whatever, I say! She earned some babysitting money and bought a digital camera with it. I am proud that she spent it on something that will use her mind. She loves art, photos, photo shopping, so it will keep her busy. Well, that is about it. Maybe dreamland will come now....much love to you all...
