Truly Pathetic

So it is really sad that I have not posted anything since our Christmas post, but in my defense, our camera is broken, and so what fun is a post with no pictures. Anyway, I will tell you the tales of our life minus all the pretty pictures. So, in March, we decided to drive Caleb out to spend the rest of the school year with his mom, which we thought he needed. And it was good while it lasted, but because of various reasons, when Caleb came home for the summer, it was actually for good. He will be with us forever, which is a good thing, since I think he needs the type of surroundings our home and lifestyle bring. Not to mention how much everyone misses him when he is gone. It is heartbreaking to hear Delaney ask when Caleb will be coming home.

In May, the little ones and I went out to visit Granny in California with Clisty and her girls. We had a great time, and I miss Granny, and everyone else that I love and enjoy spending time with in California. We got to visit the Childrens Discovery Museum, the Boardwalk in Santa Cruz, and various other fun places, while Cindy and the kids were up to visit.

Right now, we are enjoying a long visit from Cindy, Lannah, Maelee, and Nixon, and Garrett will be here this weekend. It has been great having them around so much, and makes us wish they lived here again.

Last week, Caleb and Chris went to Scout Camp and had a great time, especially doing the outdoorsy things that boys love to do. Caleb did really well in earning his merit badges and passing things off, and constantly talks about getting his Eagle. I sure hope that he will continue to work on that. It would make us very proud.

Otherwise things are moving along, albeit at a fast yet slow pace. Anyone who has kids knows what I mean. Time seems to fly by and yet it seems as if they have also been in your life forever. I love every moment of being a stay-at-home mom, and feel very blessed that Chris makes it so. Thanks Chris, for all you do. I love you.

I hope everyone out there is doing great, or at least plugging along in a pleasant fashion. Good Afternoon, Good Evening, and Good Night. (The first person to guess what movie that comes from gets an awesome virtual hug from me)

Is it "The Truman Show"?

What?? You were in Santa Clara and did not visit us? 1000 lashes with a wet noodle!

I totally get what you mean about being a stay at home mom. The days are LONG but the years fly by with these little guys.
