Well....

I am feeling really guilty for not writting more.... Since I last wrote we had the baseball party, Kanin lost his 7th tooth (which means we are getting closer to braces), Koen is now riding a 2 wheel bike and both the boys are out of school. I just cant get over how busy I have been. How did I get stuff done when I was working?

On Koen's last day of school he had a field trip to a local park where the fire department showed up and gave all the kids a tour of their rigs. Koen had a good time and wants to be a fireman when he grows up. Actually, it has changed now to a Monster Truck driver and the truck will be painted as a firetruck with light on top. I told him that's fine as long as he gives his Mama a ride! He will be starting preschool again at the beginning of August. He is really looking forward to it.

Kanin had a big BBQ with all his classmates on his last day of school. He is happy to now be a 3rd grader. We will find out soon who his teacher will be. He goes back to school on July 28th. We felt a little bad about sending him to Summer School because he started that only a few days after his last day of school and will only have a few weeks of summer vacation. But he brushed up on a lot of vital information that will hopefully help him in 3rd grade.

We recently went to a friends wedding in Anderson which we brought our Toy Hauler too. This gave us the "camping itch" so we decided to go camping a few weeks later. We had a great time. It had been 2 years since we have been. Keyvin had a great time because it was Father's Day weekend and he didnt have to do anything but relax. The boys are begging to go again. We ended up taking Kanin out of Summer School for 2 days. We headed up by ourselves as a family and spent a full day and a 1/2 together before Todd, Mikelyn, John and all the kids headed up. We swam, fished, roasted marshmellows and all the other fun camping stuff you can do. Everyone headed home on Sunday (Fathers Day) and since Keyvin didnt have any work Monday we decided to stay an extra day. I read a whole book that weekend. You know how long it has been since I have been able to do that? A VERY LONG TIME!! We had a thunder storm come through but it was just enough rain to keep the dust down. It was pretty exciting and the rainbow it left behind was beautiful!

So, now we are getting ready to start Kanin's 1st year of soccer. Thanks to Auntie and Oma, Kanin is able to play. Our first meeting is next week where we will get to meet all the players. Wish us luck and as soon as the schedule is out I will forward to everyone. I'm sure we will need all the support we can.
