Summer Photo Dump

Ok I am so not a homeschooling mom- I need my time LOL.

So I am not to proud to admit that summer has been absolutely killing me.

BUT as I finally dumped the 307 pictures off my phone I thought I would do a quick catch - up because really it has been lots of fun!

We finally got the front yard (ok a portion) landscaped as our 23 year old house was looking BAD


The forest caught on fire


and the MAFFS started flying directly over our house


So we took photos of everything and packed our crap 



And reorganized 


And Oops what evacuated with us?!?!


celebrated Father's Day and finished up lacrosse


And met lots of new friends in real life!!


who liked riding bikes as much as we do


and bring lots of color to our once white life


and learned to share


and our friends came back (love this Jodi)


And more friends came


And even more


Until we locked the doors LOL


And we planted flowers and our crew figured the firetruck was great for watering


And we did summer school and rocked the 3 piggie opera
(and this shocked momma cried over her girl who has come so far)



And little man (green shoes) played baseball with his best friend
and got nicknamed sledge hamma
and all was right in his world 


And we were in a parade


And he walked part of the way and made us proud


and well he is jsut cute LOL


And we got major braces


and then they broke ugh



And our hearts break but our community has rallied




And the weather has been crazy


Oh wait MORE new friends


And our friends we met in CHINA getting Landon and Tao


And we found out dwarfs still don't float right side up


and watched the Jr National goalball championships 


Oh and the stinking cat had kittens while we were evacuated


and our big brother comes and goes, football, wrestling and lacrosse camps, 
mission trips and FCA


and everyday these two ask when he is coming home


Until they leave for camp

and mommy has no idea how many kids she has any longer LOL

But truly can say she is loving this new crazy life of many,

AND the incredible blessings.

Saturday we leave for the great roadtrip to the World Dwarf games!!

  1. I with you! I love my children, but I need my time in the day to keep me from going crazy! 3 more weeks for us here in Georgia, not that I am counting or anything.

  4. Looks like you have been having a great summer so far! Busy too, that has been ours as well. We are heading your way next week, get to see Mr. Terry on Weds before heading into the mountains for family camp for a few days. Reality has hit that the summer has been awesome but flown by and in less than a month we are back in school full swing!
    THanks for sharing your summer in photos, it looks awesome!
