I'm sorry I haven't updated in August yet. I simply forget sometimes.
The last time I wrote I told you we were going "camping". We did and enjoyed ourselves. We went to Leavenworth, WA. The KOA we stayed at was super packed, but the girls loved the pool they had there. We went and did a little exploring, but mostly they just wanted to swim. We stayed in a cabin there instead of a tent. At least it had air conditioning, but still no bathroom. It was a fun family adventure.
The next weekend we went down to Seattle for the Seafair Fun Run. There where over 2000 runners in that race! Mike did great. It was a real adventure to brave the big city. We found a spot along the parade route to wait for Michael to pass us in the race. It was a 10 K race. We had to wait and wait, so I read a book to the girls. After the race we stuck around for the big city parade which was really neat. The girls liked the big balloons. I liked the differentinternational cultural dancers.
We hit the pool last week a couple times and the big girls were jumping in the deep end without any floatation devices! I guess all that swimming at the KOA got them to feel confident. They're regular swimmers now.
We didn't do much over the last weekend except celebrate Great Grandma Wright's 80th birthday with pie and ice cream!
This coming weekend we are going to have a garage sale on Saturday. I don't hope to sell too much, but the girls really want to do the sale. I think they'll try to sell some lemonade. They also have a few stuffed animals to sell, though they couldn't really part with many.
The days of summer are flying by. I can't believe there are only three full weeks. I've been really working on stuff for Ladies' Ministries lately. We are having a big event on the 19th, so I've been working on that. I have to talk for about 30 minutes at that, so I've been trying to nail down what I'll say and editing the handbook I've been writing. I enjoy it though and that is why time is flying.
After the big Ladies' event I'll get a real treat because Mike and I are going to Disneyland (by ourselves) for our 10th anniversary! Talk about time flying...I've been married for TEN years?!! Wow. They've been a good ten years with a wonderful guy. Wouldn't have wanted to go through it with anyone else but him. It will be so much fun to get away for a few days.
Then I'll come home and get those girls ready for school! They are kind of excited to get back there anyway.
