So this Blogging thing has been left by the wayside!! It is so simple but for some reason we forget to do it! It is just easier to log onto facebook and change your status than getting into all the details of life. But... I did have a goal of "journaling" our family life. So I will start with our summer... how long is this summer thing supposed to last anyway?? The kids have been great playing together. I guess since we have not been good about setting up playdates and activities for the kids they know how to play together well. I think it's good for them. I tell them all the time that they are each others best friends. Maybe the brainwashing is working! At least it works until other children come over. Then there is somehow always a problem. I don't get it!
Dalton and Ansleigh each were able to go to a Scout camp. They both had fun. For the Fourth of July we went to Grammy and Grampys for dinner and fireworks on the golf course. The kids loved that! We planned to go to the beach the following week but have postponed that to the week before school starts. I got my knee and wrist surgery done. I am over feeling crappy. And Jared is over me feeling crappy. I am looking forward to healing and being a person, mom, wife, daughter, sister,etc! All the things that I need to focus on...other than meds and naps!
We have had some sad and interesting family changes. I don't even want to expand on that one. It's a little too much right now and I don't want to start that emotional roller coaster. I do know that our family motto stands true... "Choosing the RIGHT in EVERY brings HAPPINESS to you EVERY day"!! Pleasure can be felt and temporary satisfaction can be experienced. But feeling the pure joy that comes only through doing what is right cannot be duplicated. It is just completely contrary to our Heavenly Fathers plan!! I have total faith in His plan!!!
So I have bumbled enough from one topic to another. I will see if Jared will write on here next...and soon.
