The weekend with the family was great...the highlight for me was swimming, the 4 of us(not to mention seeing my wife in a swimsuit...YES!!!!!)
Mr. anonymous is too funny!
Glad you had a fab time. It sounds like things are happy for your family even with the departure of your sis. I know how you feel. It's not easy. Good luck and thinking of you!
What a great time you must have had. Camping!!! I love it. Just last weekend we all drove through a park to check it out. The weather was perfect and everyone looked like they were having a ball. I think we'll try and plan something sometime soon.
p.s. Flynn..you are too cute with your little Bible.
Oh, yes. We love "the bug-man-truck" as it's know in our house.
