Almost a month!!!

Hello all!

I bet you all thought I was giving up on blogging... NO! Just been sooo busy. With the end of school and start of summer things have been crazy. I have also picked up a new game on Facebook that takes a lot of my time. It's called Farm Town, you create and run your own farm, plant crops, harvest, replant and move up to certain levels to buy things and such. It really fun. A lot of my family and friends are on it to and we can interact with each other. So I have to admit most all of my 'free time' has been used farming!  Anyway, school was finally out June 5 and Rachel is gone to her Mom's for almost 2 weeks.  Her soccer team ended up winning the state tournament and qualifying for regionals in Sioux Falls, South Dakota!!! It is a major accomplishment for the girls and a privilege to represent their state! We leave Friday, June 19th! It is a very unexpected but welcomed trip for us to take. We should get to see Mt. Rushmore, the Badlands and lots of cool things like that. We have decided that Kaden will stay with my parents and sisters. I have such mixed emotions about leaving for him so long ( probably 6 days!) but I think it will be better for him to stay home and stay on his normal routine. He isn't one to get off course! It is a 15 hour day and lots of the things we plan to do will be more enjoyable for everyone if he stays home. He won't miss us near as much as we will miss him! He loves staying at Mimi and Poppie's- and we are glad! With our cross country trip approaching we got a new car!! Well, not really because of the trip, we have been talking about trading in our sequoia for a while now. We have had some problems with it and had a really large car payment so we have been looking for a bit! Yesterday we got a ,wait for it....... a mini van!!!! Yes, yes we did! We don't actually have it yet, but should get it tomorrow. For our family, and lifestyle it just seemed to really fit- plus we got a brand new, loaded van and are saving $170 a month! No, no the purchase of a mini van does NOT mean there are more babies on the horizon.  Well, I promise to update more often. With it being summertime, we are outside so much more and my time is limited. Hope all is well with you and yours! Here are some recent pics of the kids enjoying SUMMER!!

XOXO,
