Happy Birthday Gunnar!

I now have both children in double digits - where has time gone? They grow so fast!

Well I am learning that if I am home, they will need rides! I have spent more time in my car & put on more miles than when I was working and commuting all the way across town! Fencing camp was pretty cool - there is so much more to the whole sport than I would have guessed. Since school let out on June 10th, my running has been wild and the kids busy. The kids and I have been north to the camper for a downright lazy few days. Then in just one week dd has been to a local beach with friends, Valleyfair with church, pool party/sleep over, afternoon with Mama for manicure and pedicure and leaves tomorrow for adventure camp where she will spend a week in the Boundary Waters. As for the birthday boy, even while fighting a sinus infection, he has had a week of fencing camp (3.5 hours each morning), soccer practices started, a sleep over and play dates galore. Both of them are also starting an online class learning PSP. Wish I had they're energy!

Today we will be having some family birthday fun - hopefully relaxing as well. Mocha was spayed yesterday, so she has to stay low key. Tomorrow is the lovely 6 hours of driving to drop dd off at camp - not as bad as it sounds, it is the one time of year I get to have a long conversation with a dear friend.

Summer has finally begun here - I had to break out the sunscreen! And of course with summer comes bugs! YUCK! I have aphids in my gardens and ants in my lawn - bug patrol starts today.

My job search has not really begun yet - but next week I start. As far as health insurance, well I am appealing the decision, but they won't get back to us for 30 days. In the mean time we are trying a different program - praying that it works.
