Random matters

I haven't blogged much lately. It's not that there haven't been things to write about it is just that I have kept pretty busy! Here is what has happened the past few months that I haven't found the time to write about!

The boys each ran track for the first time. The ran relays, 100M, 400M and 800M. They seemed to enjoy it and it was fun watching them run and cheer them on.

Toward the end of May the rain seemed to begin and is still occurring. We have had so much flooding. Our road towards the north by the river always floods with heavy rain but one day it flooded to the south! Most of the roads were flooded and as a result the kids who were stuck in town as the buses couldn't move anywhere . Ted managed to pick them up after work but it took him and the kids over an hour to find a way home! Fortunately the north section hadn't flooded yet or they would have been kept away from home!

Enjoyed the beauty of spring!
Watched Mason be promoted to HIGH SCHOOL!

Emily had a field trip to a Horse Camp and now really wants a horse....or stay with Aunt Karen for a while!My parents visited all of us kids and stayed with us a few days. The boys are always thrilled to see how much taller they are than my mom. My Dad built several new bird houses and brought them with so we can have happy birds now!

Witnessed some incredible sunsets before thunderstorms...
Logan finally got his friend birthday party which included lots of boys! So thankful it didn't rain, they had a cookout over a fire and ran wild outside! What fun time they had!
The boys have camped a few times. Cleo the cat camped as well, I am sure this may be a first...a camping cat?? Of course the dogs guarded them all through the night and into the morning.Emily found her prince...

Happy Birthday Logan




Twelve years ago we were blessed with Logan! I can't believe that he is twelve years old now. Without him our home would be so quiet:) Logan is always around making some noise or making us laugh. He is really growing up into such a responsible young man. We are so proud that he is our son. We love you lots Logan, Happy Birthday!!
