Fall is in the air

I LOVE summer, but after the long hot summer comes... the cool mornings of fall. I love walking out the door to go to school and the air is cool. Now, if the days will just cool off some.
Well, we have started football, cheerleading, and soccer. So, we are out and about a lot. Adalae is cheering for Duncan's team this year. It is going good so far.
School is great for everybody. We are going camping for a weekend. I really love waking up and going out into the cool air at the campground. I start cooking breakfast and begin to smell the aroma of all the other campers cooking, too. HMMMM! :)
FALL is almost here, and we are ready!

Spring is HERE!

WOW, it has been a long, long time since I last blogged. The last time I said we were NOT ready to go back to school, and now we only have 34 days left in school. We are just coming off spring break and looking forward to summer. We sat around yesterday and talked about our, now, annual family beach vacation. That has really gotten us in the mood for the summer. I love the warm weather and sunshine. We worked all day outside on Saturday, and I felt so good afterward. Tired, but good.

Wow, it is already JULY!


I can not believe it is July, already. I know it has been a while since I blogged, but I have no excuse.

We are having a great summer, and we are NOT ready to go back to school. It isn't that we don't like it, we just like the SUMMER LIFE better!! I am sure you know what we mean.

We have been to the beach in June, and are planning a Disney Christmas trip in December. The kids and I are trying to talk Daddy into a quick camping trip before school. I don't know if we will fit that in.

Someone in the family will turn 40 this year. I would love to plan a surprise party of a few friends, but I am bad about thinking and not planning. That is what I have in my mind for now, hopefully I will get something together.

Well, back to summer. Talk to ya'll later.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR! I hope everyone had a great Christmas and new year. We did around here.
Christmas was great. We all pretty much got what we wanted or, at least, needed. I am sure the kids would beg to differ. They got plenty, though. We were able to see family and friends, too. That is always fun.
New Year's is always a "blast" for our family. Dunc really LOVES to buy his OWN fireworks and shoot them HIMSELF. ( Thanks Dana for the help with this). Ada is trying to get into this also, but isn't quite there yet. Dutch enjoys the sparklers and smoke balls. He loves to run through the "stinky" smoke.
This year we got an outdoor fireplace for Christmas, so we lit a fire and sat outside for "the show". We roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. It was a great time.

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

New Blogger

Wow, I am creating my own blog. I can not believe it. I have been inspired by my friend, Dana. Her blog is great.
I hope everyone is ready for Christmas. My children are ready!!! As for my husband and I, we are trying hard. Each year we try not to get tied up doing the "shopping" thing all the way up to the day of giving. But, we are doing it again.
We are ready, it does not matter what has not been purchased. We know the whole reason for the season. Our Saviour, Jesus Christ, was born. We should always keep that at the front of our thoughts.
I hope you all have a great holiday.

Merry Christmas!
