Wow, here I go again getting all backed up with this blog. Ugh, I hate that! I've always been particular about things, getting things done ahead of time and always having things put away in their places...not so much these days though!
This summer has been full of activities - birthday parties, fun days with friends, baby showers, get togethers with FAR AWAY visitors! It's hard to believe how fast summer is going by. Soon August will be here, and then it will be back to school time. I still get those butterflies in my stomach when September comes around, thinking of all the kids and their first days of school. Madelyn will start pre-school this fall, we're really excited.
A few weeks ago my sister in law Haylie attended a conference with many other people who share the same condition she has - VACTERL association, there's alot of info out there - you should google it! Her friend Mathies came back with her to stay in Virginia for a week from Denmark! He's such a nice guy, we had a fun time scoping out some history in Chesterfield County.
We cooked out with our friends Fred, Amber, Jackson and Aubrey for July 4th. We attempted to watch the fireworks that night, but the kids weren't too interested. I had a hunch she wouldn't really get it yet, maybe next year.
Last week Madelyn saw her very first movie in the theater - Horton Hears a Who! Our theater offers free movies a few mornings during the week for kids during the summer. She loved it, Auntie Haylie and my nephew Seth were there with us. Now when we turn that movie on, she says "my first movie". She amazes us!
