Playing Catch-Up

Since I feel like I am Soooooo FAR BEHIND on my blog I am going to try and just post photos of our summer to catch us up.

It has been a VERY crazy summer. One of the hardest of my life. We have been stuck on a roller coaster for most of the summer with the whole house process. We've had some highs, LOTS of lows, and lots of unexpected turns. But we have finally arrived at the station and have gotten off the roller coaster in our NEW home! And it was TOTALLY worth it!!!!! The ride really sucked but the end result made it all worth it.

Despite all the craziness that we went through I still tried to add some fun things in for the kids to do. All my grand plans of the kids setting goals and working on them daily went right out the window and my kids were "plugged" into electronics WAY more than they should have been. But we made it through. So here are some highlights of our CRAZY summer!!!
