The Last Month or So

July 1 - welcomed my newest nephew into the world, Miles James
July 4th weekend - spent it in Indiana with the Pattens
July 8 thru 17 - went to South Dakota with the senior high youth group from Lakeshore, saw things like Mt Rushmore, the Badlands, Needles Highway, Harney Peak, Wind Cave National Park
July 22 thru 25 - Julie Muse came from Wisconsin to visit and we went to the beach (swam in HUGE waves on a red flag day) and to Kirby Grill (for the first time!) plus other fun stuff
July 30 thru August 14 - Sadie sitting at the lake house while Anhalts are in Togo
August 1 thru 7 - Coast Guard week; danced in the street Tuesday night with Josh, parade and craft show with mom, fireworks with Kristin

And in between all those dates I've been babysitting the twins of course, hangin' out with Kristin alot, got to see Kristen McCracken (well, DeHaven now!) while she's home from Georgia, had a few of the senior high girls over for a sleepover, tested several new students for the upcoming school year, etc. Good times! Summer's been fantastic and I can't wait for school to start!
