That was summer blowing by!! I barely caught my breath!
The usual things happened when you live near the beach- beach things, Fourth of July on the beach, lots of visitors, the kids runn oft-ed to Grandma and Grandpa's for 2 weeks- let's see that took care of July. August has been devoured by a shoulder injury acquired by moi. Because who else in this house would get hurt or sick? Yes, we really haven't been too exciting in August, just a whole bunch of Ev's summer training for gymnastics, some more beach time and lots of Mom moaning and aching with her shoulder. Bugs and frogs were caught. Books were read (Ev read 25 books on her own).
My Grandpa Matt had a great big birthday and we travelled for that and I got to kiss his face off!
We stayed in Ohio for a bit, dropping the kids off and picking them up again from Smokewood.
Jodi came by for a visit.
Ryan, Kristi and Olivia Kiley came for a visit.
The Klosterman Clan came for a visit.
Ev had a birthday, now she's nine. Papa had a birthday now he's old.
And I loved every minute except for the part where my kids grew actual inches and gained real maturity that I can measure almost with a spoon. Because no-one ever tells you that time is cruel to you if you are a mother, time goes by so fast when you have children, that you consider, every day about going to The Crossroads to make a deal for just one more day with them.
And now PICTURES!
