Summer Fun!!

Here's a little about our summer. I am working a Summer Bridge program for struggling rising freshmen. If they do not complete this 8 week program or pass they will go back to 8th grade. It's from 8:30-1:30 and it's good money. Ben works from 4-9 or 6-9 most nights. We get to see each other a little more. But that's OK. It's what we have to do for our family. My parents got an above ground pool and now Abby has decided she wants to stay there the entire summer!! She is going to stay there this week and says she won't miss me or the boys but will miss her daddy. No surprise there!!! She has become the little swimmer and I'm thinking we might get her into swimming. She seems built for it. She went to Camp John Knox for a week of Day Camp and absolutely loved it. She wants to go to all of the camps she can- too bad we can't afford them all. We are blessed that someone from church wants to sponsor her and send her to the overnight mini-camp. Unfortunately it is the week that I am off, but Abby is really excited. Maybe that week we will be able to work A LOT on our house. I am so ready to move and sell it's driving me crazy. The boys are starting to talk more and LOVE to be outside. Blaine is trying to swim without in assistance and wants to be under water. He is hilarious in the pool. If we have enough people around I hope to take some video of the boys. It is challenging to get videos when you have 2 toddlers!!!! I need a helmet camera!!! I won't tell Ben because he might make one. Christian is not as fond of the water but he is our little track star. He runs so fast- we can barely keep up. Well- hope to report more and with some pictures and/or video.
