We took a big break over the summer to spend time making memories instead of just sitting in front of the computer blogging about them. LOL! But we are back now and in full swing of school, so while the boys are working away at their books and computer, I will have time to catch up!
During July, we took a big vacation to the beach. Our at home vacation activities consisted mostly of swimming, bowling, playing the Wii, and going to the 50cent movie theater.
In August, the boys went to Pre-teen camp. I spent most of the time preparing for school. The rest of the month was spent getting Mike ready to leave for college. Last week, the whole family drove to Colorado to drop him off.
I will post more about all these things in future blogs!
Hope you all had a safe and fun summer too!
Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. 12 Then you will call upon me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. 13 You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.

Testimony
After spending my life believing that God was someone who was angry with me, I came to know Him through some friends I met at a MOPs (Mothers of Preschoolers) meeting. In 1999, I was married with three children. I went to the meetings to learn how to be a better wife and mother because I never felt "good enough". And I was making myself and my family miserable trying to be.
Through the Bible study at MOPs, I learned what it meant when people said, "Jesus loves you." My husband had been a Christian his whole life but for me this was a new real experience, something more than just a head experience. My family started attending services and Sunday School at the same church where the MOPs meetings were held. It made all the difference in world to me.
A few months, I was baptized with my oldest son, with my husband standing with me.
