I don't know about you but for me, rainy days become 'thinking' days, or, 'reflection' days. I find my thoughts scattered here, there, and everywhere. For instance...
...Ken is taking on 'Scoutmaster' position in our son's Boy Scout troop. It's funny to think we've gone from researching luxury vacation properties to camping/hiking equipment! My warm-weather-loving husband is checking out zero-degree sleeping bags, survival practices, equipment compression and weight stats, etc. Who'd-a-thunk-it? I'm so proud of him!
... today is Elisa and Rob's wedding anniversary. They've sure come a long way these three years. It's also a pleasure to have Rob as part of our family. He's a great guy and I'm glad he's 'one of ours.' Congratulations, Rob and Elisa!
...Darrell is doing great in school. He has two courses over the summer to make up for credits he lost moving from Erskine to USC Upstate. One's a psych course and the next is 'History of Rock and Roll.' He's a pretty happy student these days!
...tomorrow is Nicole's birthday. She turns 17 and I so wish I could be there to give her a big hug. I just know she's going to take on the world one of these days soon - and come out on top. Happy Birthday, Nicole!
...so glad Shan, Josh and Kaitlyn are safely home from their whirlwind round-trip to Louisiana. There and back in 24-hours. Did I mention that Shannon left all their CD's at home??? That makes for a lot of static on the old car radio. Kudos to Josh, our marathon man.
...vacation (the non-camping variety) is still 4-months away; sure wish it was now.
...Zachary has to be the coolest 8-month old in the world! Every day brings new 'firsts,' and discoveries galore. Oh yeah - mobility, too. He just wants to go and go and go...
...The school year is winding down - some other things as well. Christopher and his cousin, Andrew, are at the end of their elementary school years... UNBELIEVABLE! ...AWANA finishes tonight and Abbey will say goodbye to 'Sparks' and move up to T&T in the fall. Christopher has just one more year in the program.
...getting ready to start our next school year. Praying I've made a good choice of curriculum and looking forward to the 'newness' of starting again.
Time to run - the coolest 8-month old in the world is getting grumpy. Seems he doesn't care it's a rainy day and Grandma is blogging.
Happy everything...
