Dear Everyone,

It seems summer is here. Although, this is Oregon, and the weather could change in an instant. The rain has been gone for over a week now and we are threatened by 95 degree temps this weekend. I'll head to the pool. :)

The boys have enjoyed their first two weeks of summer by participating in some sport camps. Charlie played flag football and wants to play in the Fall. This week, they are doing Track and Field events. In addition, on Wednesday evenings is an "All Comers Track Meet", throughout July. The boys want to compete in that. In two weeks, they will benefit from a Skateboarding camp ("Finally, we'll learn how to ________!"). Then, Autry (and Charlie is still considering) will learn the game of Lacrosse. That should wrap up the month of July.

We are looking forward to visitors next month as well. We'll be celebrating the 4th of July with James' mom, who will arrive next Tuesday and visit for about a week. Then, at the end of July, my mom and dad will be visiting. We will also be squeezing in a church-wide campout in the middle of July.

Then, in August, we will resume our quiet little life of just the four of us. Ahhhh...still summer (school officially begins up here after Labor Day). Now you are aware of our plans. And I'll post some pictures as the days go on and as adventures continue.

I think of you all quite frequently and say a little prayer (sometimes) when I do. We miss everyone and would love to see you and hang out with you again. Someday...

I hope you have a marvelous summer and make terrific family/friend memories. Cherish those who are in your life and make it a point to hang out with them this summer, while you supposedly have time. Eat together. Laugh together. Play. Enjoy your relationships. This is my desire for "all ya'll".

With lots of Love,
m
