The summer is flying by! I haven't got everything on my summer "to-do" list complete! This last week the kids had vacation bible school each evening. Actually, Trevor was too young this year, we did one night and he didn't go back. Cameron loved it. The last day they did a little performance and when we had to leave, Cameron cried the whole way home and was hysterical for a hour in bed because he wanted to go back to bible school and he knew it was over. Might have been the result of coming down from a sugar high, who knows. This weekend we went to stay at Zach's parents house. They were out of town, but were nice enough to let us stay and invite some friends over for a pool party. All of our friends were very appreciative to have a pool to hang out by on such an extremely hot day! This entire summer has just been WAY too hot! It is much easier to be outside when there is a pool. I usually like to be in a lawn chair for most of the time, but our two boys never got out of the water. Ever since the boat day on the lake, Trevor loves big open water. He tries going in the pool before he has a float, whether we're in there or not, no fear!! I was terrified he'd drown. So, Zach and I were in the water mostly the entire day. The boys swam for a little over 5 hours straight and only went in because it was past bedtime and they were forced because it was getting dark! Very fun! It was really nice to see all of our friends as well and their babies.
Tonight Zach sang at open mic night at our church. He did great! He's getting more and more into playing his guitar at church and singing.
Tomorrow Trevor and I are going to go visit Papa at the hospital. It's his third week and I know he will enjoy to see Trevor for a little bit. He'd like to see Cam too, but I don't want to risk Cameron picking up something there, so Nana will watch him while I take Trevor for the visit. Then Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday I have work all day, professional development days! I'm supposed to be able to get into my room the following Monday. I am nervous about getting set up, I will have 4 days (if it doesn't get delayed due to construction). I don't know what supplies are in my room, how I'm going to organize, how much I need to bring from home from the stuff I had in my other room. It's not the same when you move grades and schools. I'm nervous about it. I need to practice with my new active board too so I don't look like a fool when the kids are there. So, the week after that, school starts!!! Basically, summer is over!!!! Man, seems like there isn't much of a summer these days for teachers with all the stuff that we have to do once the kids are out and then the prep that has to be done weeks before they come!
Oh, we got Skype set up and tried it with my dad tonight. Pretty neat. The kids are going to love being able to see someone while they talk to them!!
