What a Summer!


Wow! I can't believe that we are in the first week of August. I obviously have been awful about blogging this summer. I have spent most of my time at the lake. The kids have grown so much.

Noah is now a swimmer! After a summer of lessons he is jumping off in the deep end and swimming to the ladder. This makes swimming with him so much more enjoyable. He is swimming on his own in the lake too, but with a life jacket. I have great pictures on Facebook.

Natalie has grown a ton! She's still not talking as much as Noah was at her age, but the doctor says her hearing is above normal and Noah is just talking for her so she doesn't feel the need to. She's going to start going to the same school that Noah goes to later this month. I think it's going to be hard at first, but she'll love it!

As for me, I've been making cakes this summer! I'm including a picture of my favorite one. I made it for a bachelorette party. I also have been able to spend some time away from the kids this summer, which is always nice. I went to Dallas and had a TON of fun with my awesome friends and snuck in an Aerosmith and ZZ Top concert while I was there.

Just this past weekend we had a child free weekend at the lake with all of my friends. Great times. I'll be starting work in a week and a half. It's a bitter-sweet feeling...

Jeff is starting his masters this month. I'm dreading it but I'm glad he's getting it done.

Well, I feel like I have just rambled on. I hear Natalie so I better post this and get out of the basement!
