July 2011

So I am finally getting closer to getting this thing updated! July was a really fun month for us. We hung out, just the four of us for the 4th. We took the kids to play at the playground at Eastridge Community Church, which us right behind our house, and David grilled out for us that evening in the pouring down rain.





































David has been in banking school through BB&T at Wake Forest University since March of 2008. He was supposed to finish up last July, but was unable to because I went into labor, or so we thought, and he ended coming home. So, after waiting an entire year, he was able to go finish up this program. He was gone for 8 days and while he was busy in class and working on a big project, the kids and I went to the beach!

My parents bought a condo in Panama City Beach, Fl back in the spring and this was our first time down there. We took David's sister Katee and her kids Ana and Evan. We left on Friday morning, just as David was getting ready to go to work, and we were going to stay until Tuesday. When we got there the weather was awful! We had a tropical system spinning over the panhandle of Florida producing tons of rain! On Saturday, we decided to get out and try to have some fun, despite the rain, and we ended up at the indoor pool and then got brave enough to go on to the beach. Sunday started off rainy and got better by the afternoon. It was fun and the kids did not seem to mind. Monday was beautiful! We stayed out on the beach most of the day. The kids dug holes and played in the sand and we walked out passed the seaweed to jump the waves. Ana and Evan are great with our kids and were a huge help while we were down there. Next year we are going again, but both dads are coming with us.





















































We were all excited to see David when he got home. Not having him to help with the kids in the evenings made me really appreciate all that he does for me and he kids! Thankfully, he finished the program, graduated, and will not have to go back next summer!!!

My summer vacation came to an abrupt end the last few days of July when I had to go get my room ready at our new school and report to work. I enjoyed my summer at home with the kids so much that I had a difficult time leaving them at daycare and getting back into a routine. The summer time with them really makes me want to be a stay at home mom!
