Proud Day!!

Our Daughter is one amazing little girl, well not so little! LOL  She WON a GOLD medal in our area Bocce Meet today along with her partner Mike.  She will advance on to State Bocce!!  Her Dad said she played better today than she ever has!!

School starts on Monday, I’m kind of sad, but mostly happy.  It will be nice to get back on a schedule.  

We have also started Swimming with Special Olympics and Chawndell LOVES it, she is a “fish” (well that is what she tells us)

I think in this picture she is trying to give me a fast smile so she can go and have “free time”  They work HARD at swimming, I had no IDEA how hard it is to swim across the pool.  I thought I would try the lap thing while the kids were having there  “free time”  Well it is not easy.  Or maybe I’m way out of shape LOL!

The worst blogger

I’m the worst blogger out here!!  I’m sorry we must live a boring life, because I don’t think I have much to share with you.  We start school on Wednesday the 30 and I’m ready and I think Chawndell is ready also.  It will be nice to get back into a schedule.  This week Chawndell will start Swimming with Special Olympics' and she is very excited.  I hope it is not to hard for her, but maybe it will be good to challenge her a little.  We are still doing Bocce and she hates it, but Larry and I have been coaching so we drag her along.  I think she does not pay attention and only does it half heart so we will get frustrated with her and let her quit, well she WRONG LOL.  I’ll get some pictures of her swimming after our first practice.  Well enjoy your SUMMER or what is left of it!!

HELLO Summer

OK so we are done with Cub Scout Camp, we were kind of sad but a little happy.  Chawndell has sleep in (way in) these last couple of days.  It has been nice for me to get up and enjoy a minutes to myself in the mornings.   Now that we are finished with camp we are doing fun fun summer things, like going to the pool, summer house projects, playing with friends and school clothes shopping.   I thought you all might like to see some camp pictures so you know how much FUN we had!!!!
