Thought I Better Do This Now!

I thought I should do one more blog entry since I will be gone this week. Tomorrow Meemaw and Papa come in from Oregon to visit. Also, Uncle Scott and Aunt Kristie and their 4 kids will be here as well. It will be a family reunion of sorts. We are looking forward to having the company. They all get in Monday night and Tuesday morning we will leave for the Kenai for 5 days to fish and camp. The kids are thoroughly excited. Mom is not so excited as it is raining quite a bit here. I am not a camper normally. I don't mind in nice weather. I am going to pray that it gets sunnier. Who knows, we are 4-5 hours from where we are camping. It may be completely sunny weather there. I am just excited to be able to see family though.
Things are really taking shape at the house here. We still have plenty of boxes to go through and all but time will take care of it all. The hard part is mostly done, painting. We only have the kitchen and a few hall closets to paint and we will be done with that for good.
It is hard to believe that August is almost here. The boys start school on August 20th. They are pretty excited, especially Gregory. Mom is probably more excited in some ways. Although I am ready for Gregory to start school I am terribly sad to see him grow so fast. They both just ended their soccer season, and couldn't have ended it any better. Gregory's soccer coach mentioned they may have their team pic in the local newspaper. Gregory thought that would be really neat. They are supposed to let us know.
Once the boys start school Audrey starts her creative movements class. She has her ballet shoes, tights, and leotards already. She can't wait to wear it all. Her birthday is this Friday while we are gone camping. We have a party planned for next Monday night. She is having the Care Bear theme. Four years ago she was born. My oh my!!! Where did my little baby go. She is seeming so grown up now.
Well, all I can hear while I am typing this is my dryer and RAIN! You all pray we have nice weather please!
Take care and will be back with pics of Audrey's party next week.
