Summer Vacation

It is only about a month away - summer vacation. We are looking forward to it more than normal. May finished another year of graduate classes which are extremely time consuming. May included two week long graduations at colleges. June includes two summer camps, which we love and enjoy. But we are ready for a break. Several stressful situations have added to our readiness. It is okay to have moments of rest and relaxation. Our Savior taught us that by His example. My desire is to savor the moments with my family. We are going to Sea World San Antonio and a water park (which is ridiculously hard to spell, so I won't try). Next year one of my children graduates college, and one begins. Amazingly we also will have a 4th grader and a 1st grader. Every moment with them is precious. How many more summers will I have with my 20 year old? I don't want to miss a minute. This is my 18 year old's senior trip, she just wants to relax. We have encouraged her to work hard to prepare for college. Vacation - it is about life, love, and laughter. Ten days of family fun - priceless.

Disc Golf

We started something new as a family this summer - Disc Golf. Flying frisbees into metal baskets. It started as a great way to spend some time with the family, but we have all been having a great time. I am sure all six of us look a little funny throwing our discs from all directions. The good thing is it is free - that is after you buy ten to twenty dollar disc! But this is a wonderful inexpensive family fun time. The first two times I played I had to climb three trees. But thankfully things are getting better. That is after I begin to feel my arm again.
