Good Grief! I didn't realize it had been so long since I posted anything. Our summer is moving along. Art's parents are up to visit. They have been here about 2 weeks and will be here another week. His sister, Rebekah was here also with her fiance Keith. They left a week ago headed for home. Bec's two youngest boys, Alex (16) and Zachary (13) are here as well and are going home with Art's parents. We have had a great visit.

It's almost time for school to start. I love this time of year. I love to buy school supplies!!!!! I haven't done that this year. Money is tight for now. Art just started a new job and it will be a time before we get caught up on everything. But I had tons of pencils, paper and notebooks left over from last year. I have put in the order for their text books but they aren't in yet. I have Allison's year of work half way done. She does well with it all spelled out for her. I have a couple of Ashley's classes done. Arianna will be the last one to have her assignments all done as it's mostly her books that aren't in. Pray that they come. Ashley will graduate this coming May. Yippee! Arianna is going into the 10th grade and Allison is in the 7th.

Adam is doing well. My parents just bought him a car so that he had wheels to get back and forth to work. He is so thrilled. His son, Braeden is just adorable. I still haven't seen him in person. Arianna and I hope to fly out before too long for a long visit between Adam and his family and my parents.

Well, that's all for now. Oh yeah, we had 7 gorgeous puppies. We have sold all of them. It's a sad day when the last one leaves and yet a glad day (no more piddle puddles or presents left for us to clean). We enjoyed them while we had them.

We hope your summer is going well. Know that you're thought of and prayed for.
