Where did the summer go?

We had a very busy summer this year! We had family come in from Virginia in June and had a blast. While they were here, we took them to Galveston and of course King's Candy on the strand! Then, we were off to San Antonio for a few days so they could see the Alamo and experience the Riverwalk atmosphere. It was fun having them here and we can't wait to see them again next summer when we meet up in Branson, Missouri!



We also had a fun-filled summer with Cortney, who interned at our church in the youth department. It was so much fun having her here with us for the summer! I had someone to talk to during the day, besides to little boys! It was a blessing in disguise because she also helped me out with the boys when she wasn't working up at the church! We were torn when she had to leave us this past Saturday to head back to Beaumont. But...thank goodness for webcams; we get to see her via video whenever we get the chance! Luckily, the distance between us isn't too far and we can visit her periodically as well!




Now begins the countdown to school starting and I truthfully am not looking forward to the summer ending. Though at times the boys tested their limits with me, I have really enjoyed the summer at home with them! This was the first summer to have them at home because they have gone to daycare every summer before to hold their spots! But...with a soon to be 1st grader and kindergartner on my hands, they both were at home this summer! Like they say, a teacher's favorite months are June, July and August!!!!
