summer



We’ve had a lovely summer.

At least that’s what I keep telling myself to remember instead of all the intense behavior problems a certain middle child struggled with.   I would have loved to do more, and had planned to be much more adventurous, but I ended up pretty stressed and tired.  So we stayed close to home mostly, enjoying time with my parents, VBS, camping, a little school, and a lot of crafting.

This is what thrifting looks like for me….waiting on the kids to finish looking at books.

VBS had it’s ups and downs for the kids.  It was the first year I dropped them all off and didn’t stay to volunteer.  Isaac got to be part of the skit team and did a great job!
