speedy summer

Everyday I have the best intentions to blog. We have SO many pictures of our summer adventures and I just can't seem to find a spare minute. There is plenty of time to play, but no time to post. My little Ro WILL NOT let me type on the computer. And if Simon isn't sleeping, he's getting into some kind of trouble. It's been so nice to have my older boys home. They are heaven sent. A couple of nights ago, while playing cards (late) I was telling them that I don't think they can EVER go back to school. Ben said very matter of factly, "Mom, we have two more months of summer. Just relax and enjoy us while you can." He cracks me up. We are definitely ENJOYING our time together. (these pictures are just from the last two days.. I am afraid to go through last week's... oy.)

I know I go on and on about our ward and neighbors, but we truly live in a great area and always have something fun to do with friends. We do a summer calendar with an activity for every day of the week. You can show up or not-- no pressure. This was June's rundown. [No wonder this month has just flown by...]

Tonight I am going to stay up late and plan next months calendar and write the ward newsletter. Life is good. I don't want summer to end.......
