Keil wants this hat.

One week before school starts....

Can't believe that the summer has gone by in a snap.  I think Marc and I finally have somewhat come out of our hibernation period, for a while there we were sleeping well into our afternoons.   Getting up early after we've come home fairly late from work takes a toll on our bodies, but I didn't realize just how much our bodies were exhausted.

James starts next Tuesday and Keil starts on Wednesday.  Marc and I will be taking 4 days next week to adjust to the changes of everything.   I just feel it's important with James starting his first year in Jr. High for us to see him through at least the first few days.  Keil will start back in the 5th grade and for the next few years they won't be joined at the hip at school.

Its a big step for James especially, one that I am kind of dreading knowing the kind of student and kid that he is and how he doesn't take anything seriously.

I will be praising God if this all turns out to be more fear that I  have  more than he does and he actually does really well.    I guess this will be a  wait-and-see kind of situation.  

Ahoy Matey

No we didn't go sailing, although when were leaving we saw a beautiful sailboat sailing close to shore. But of course this happened when we were in the truck getting ready to pull out.

So the big deal is is that we finally did get to the beach this summer. This week being the only promising time in August it will be close to 100 degrees inland but at the beach it will be in the lower to mid 80's which is very favorable. It was beautiful, the tide was high, the waves were between 5-10 ft high, hardly a breeze but it was
PERFECTION.

I am actually thinking about going next week. Maybe.
