I thought that it was about time to write again. Sorry about the delay but the word busy does not describe it. I must admit that I have enjoyed every minute of it except for the unfortunate event of having to have a crown placed on one of my teeth…but thanks to a friend of ours, Van Kirkland, who saved us a few hundred bucks, seeing that his business is making crowns. Plus, I have found a great new dentist, Dr. Carpenter who never caused me any pain at all. Needless to say, I have been royally crowed! Moving on here, Sarah and I was blessed to be able to go and visit some of our best friends in Wichita, Ks. for a week. Malinda and Brad are always so fun to visit and we had the privilege of helping buy his Ipad!! Yeah!! Plus, we went to the local drive-in to see “Despicable”, which we always love doing. We are also spend rather a lot of time in their awesome pool!

Do not disturb!

Sarah also went for a spin in Brad’s Corvette and tested out the 0-90 acceleration as they went to Freddy’s to buy us frozen custard ~ yummy! She loved the car and we sure enjoyed the custard.
She did have the keys in her hand and I said, "Nooo".
Sarah was excited about also attending YfN in Dallas with our youth group. Unfortunately this will be her last year there as she now prepares to start at Concordia University on August 21st. She is very excited and looking forward to her studying nursing and obtaining her BSN. It was also time for her to say goodbye to her Pediatric rheumatologist, Dr. Ruy Carrasco, at Dell Childrens Hospital and meet her adult rheumatologist here in Round Rock, Dr. Tew.

Summer has been filled with lots of other stuff and now with the temperatures being in the 100’s for days, we are looking forward to fall….. Here are some other picks showing some of the fun we have had.
Michael and I on the cruise to the Bahamas in June.
The whole group getting ready to board the ship.
The Dallas Cowboys played and Kristen brought us treats!
Maddy at the dog park visitng friends.
Lacy recovering after her surgery, now no puppies.
Friends have made our Summer so much fun!
Peedy, our friendly squirrel is still causing havoc with throwing acorns at us and teasing the dogs. We now have two hummingbirds in our backyard who really enjoy our feeder and seem to have no fear of humans. Now with all the college shopping done and the car half packed for Sarah’s big move, thank goodness she only moves 15 miles from out home but that still does not make it easy for us parentals 😦 Yet we are so happy for her and know that her future is bright.
Big news ~ I am off to South Africa at the end of October, by myself to visit my family for 20 days!! Yippee and I am so excited as the ticket only cost me $120.00 with miles!! Will keep you all updated……
My sister Ann and her husband Rob, waiting in South Africa!!
