Summer So Far

My brain is on vacation. May be back by August. ...May not be back until November. Brad is my brain these days, which typed out looks very frightening for the future management and well-being of our family. We're loving the heat though, getting very tan, spending much time out in our beautiful pool, cared for by my sexy pool boy, Pablo. (He likes me to call him that, and give words of affirmation en espanol...."Muy bien, Pablo, gracias. La pool es muy bonita. Muchas gracias, sexy senor!" ;) TMI, right? Whatever it takes, ya'll.

My brain may be lazy, but we're always on the go.

Here is a quick look at our JUNE highlights:

• Got new flooring in our kitchen, and carpet in our playroom.
• Saw a wonderful movie with the kids "Letters to God". Rent it when it comes out!
• Had RiverPoint staff and elders families over to cookout & swim
• Went to Columbus, Ohio for the Evangelical Free National Conference
• Blessed and proud to see Brad & RiverPoint honored, receiving the Evangelism award.
• Niece, Adalyn (Kasey's) turned 1, and nephew, Mason (Carrie's) turned 2. Our family is baby-blessed!
• Chiropractor adjustments have been keeping my migraines at bay. So glad.
• Eating a lot of cucumbers lately! Much more healthy of a craving than the coconut spree I used to be on! :)
• L & G are taking tennis lessons each morning for these 2 weeks. They love it! (How about that marathon Wimbledon match, eh?)
• Saw Toy Story 3D, which could have done without the 3D. Missed Bo Peep. Loved the dog and Spanish Buzz. Quite a bit more action-packed. Got a bit teary. Weird short at the beginning. Didn't get it. Something about tolerance. Ugh...Disney.
• Happy for Michelle & Kevin in California....Caleb James was born on the 18th.
• Grace will be performing her Blanket Dance from YAGMCB for the CYT Wichita Gala. So proud of my dancer girl!!
• Going to Branson & a pastor's retreat in Arkansas this weekend with my brother and his family and my parents. Lots of fun times!
• Praying with Brad & making big decisions about our children's future education. Thank you God, for the freedom of choice at this point in America.
• Hearing and understanding more and more words from our little baby parrot.
• Speaking of birds, that ugly flower pot on my porch is now home to 4 baby birds. Watching their mother find food and feed them reminds me of how my Father takes care of me. It's beautiful.
• Blessed by a wonderful bible study by Anne Graham Lotz called Into the Word
• Beginning to feel this baby move inside me makes it all the more real. Finding out in 2 weeks. Boy or Girl? I think I know....
