Changes

Changes, Changes... Everywhere... I think they will be for the best. Looks like we are going to try to make a go of moving onto our 5 acres. We are trying to get things in order to move up over the summer and that way we can start the new school year up there. We all are very excited about the move. I think it will put our family in a different place and give us a new begining. As we know a time line I will be less cryptic. The kids are doing well, they are finishing up the Spring Soccer season down to a few games left. They have really enjoyed going back to it. Scouts are winding down also. The boys have a Summer Camp Trek this summer with their troop. I am very excited for them. They will be going to Kennedy Space Center, then off to St Augustine to tour, then to middle of the state to tube and then to the Peace River to do some fossil hunting and back home. Should be a lot of fun. More to come later. Just a little tidbit.

North Carolina/ Virginia / Washington DC Trip

Well last minute we decided to go see Grandpa Dan & Kristy in North Carolina. We had a good time swimming, eating, watching the beautiful hummingbirds, and watching all their feathered friends. They have a coupe with several Guinea Hens, Hens & a Rooster named Jim Dandy. After that we dashed northbound to Alexandria and stayed with Penny for a few days and did some of the sites. We visited The Smithsonian (Musuem of Natural History), saw the Capital, Washington Monument, The National Mall, The Lincoln Memorial, Jefferson Memorial, vaguely saw the White House from the road (its so much smaller than you expect), saw the Pentagon and 911 memorial, The Smithsonian Zoological Park, The Bureau of Engraving and Printing (where the money is made), Fort Henry, Five Guys Burgers and last but certainly not least..... Trader Joes. We also had a wonderful dinner/visit with my cousin, his wife and sweet 4 month old son, sure wish we all lived closer. We did all this driving in 6 days. Phew!!!! Hoping to get a trip in next summer too.

Our last week before school...

Wow!!! Can't believe monday starts it all again. Seems like summer was dragging by and then all of a sudden it went soooo fast! Didn't get to visit everyone that I had wanted to, but I will have to try to sneak them in before soccer starts. Here are a few pictures of the kids doing some fun stuff with some good friends... Enjoy!
