Our Summer

I've not written in a while. I hate it when I get so behind. Summer flew by in a wink. We had a great summer though.

We took our annual beach trip for the 4th of July week. My whole family went. My mom, stepdad, dad, stepmom, sister, brother-in-law, brother, sister-in-law and 12 children! My nephews have really improved on their swimming and most of them didn't need any swimmies. My oldest son and oldest nephew really got their skin boarding down pat. Little Ryan had a blast swimming in the ocean and pool. Playing in the sand with the dumptruck that my dad got him was a big hit.

Landon and Will also went to camp with our church for a week. They came back talking a hundred miles a minute and they grew up in that short time. Will went fishing, tubing, and shot rifles. Landon did the zip-line, tubing, and played volleyball. Of course they did their share of swimming. And they both dressed up for skit night - Hawaiian night.

Also, Landon and Will got baptized this summer. It was such a blessing to realize that my children came to the point in their life that they trusted Jesus as their Savior. And they wanted to let others know of their decision by being obedient and being baptized. Most of the family attended this blessed occasion.

So, that's how my summer went.
Blessings!
