What have we been doing?!

How can it already be July 18th? Time goes by so quickly, especially in the summer.

The past two weeks have been a little slower than the first part of the summer, but we still seem to fill each and every day with something! The kids use our pool a lot...every day in fact. I've been trying to take an hour each day to enjoy it with them. Sometimes I have to force myself to stop what I'm doing and get in...and then I'm glad that I do. :)

I've also been getting stuff ready for our upcoming school year; ordering curriculum, cleaning off our shelves and putting things away from last year. Nathan is planning to take a class or two at Los Medanos (local community college) this fall, so he's turned in the application and taken the assessment test...now we wait until August 3rd which is the day to register. Hopefully he'll get into the classes he wants, but high school students are the low priority students.

Unfortunately my camera was stolen this past week. :( Tim borrowed it to take on an outing with some friends, and while they were swimming in a creek, someome came along and stole the camera and another friends' iPod. Sad!!! Tim felt really bad about it, and offered to give me his camera (which he didn't take with him b/c it was being repaired). I wouldn't take away his camera, but told him he could maybe share it with me until we get a new one. :)

Nothing much else is new here...just enjoying the summer days while they last. Before we know it, it will be time to start school again.
