Loving Summer... I am back! And my pictures are saved. :)


Good news: 
My pictures are on my computer.
They were found. Years of sweet memories. 
I am thankful! 
My computer will limp along for a while... it is fixed, but slow and now I am trying to figure out a new way of storage. Updating this blog has taken a while. I have a new system that I have yet to learn.



These boys have been floating portions of Crab Creek and loving it!! I did it with them the other day, it was fun! 
State baseball in Ferndale was fun. The 11U Chiefs did well. We would have 
loved to see them go further, but we are proud of these boys.
Time with the team, time with family, camping... it was great.

Merit played really well this state tournament! 

So many family members came to watch Merit's games! I loved this!

A quick update

I get my computer back Monday or Tuesday. We think my pictures have been saved! Can't wait to see for sure. Then maybe back to some real blogging! Our last four days have been memorable. Baseball. We love baseball. Camping at Cedars RV has been FUN! Seeing extended family has been great! Many family members  have come to watch Merit play baseball. It has been a really good state tournament. Just sad we aren't playing for first and second! ;) Willem has loved hanging with cousins and buddies! Hazel has gotten grandparent snuggles and has had cousin fun. Oren has been a trooper! And Merit has played baseball he should be proud of. Vance and I are enjoying "the now." More soon...

A Wednesday update

The weather today is gorgeous! I went outdoors with the second-grade class I was teaching today. We looked for a ring a student had lost (an...
