Summer Update

(Sorry...I got the pictures backwards. The oldest is at the bottom)

I guess it's about time I update again. I gotta keep up with Lisa. We've been pretty busy the last month. We started June out with Champs Camp (Vacation Bible School). The theme was "There's No Place Like Rome". The girls had a great time!! We also snuck in a quick trip to Sea World with a group of friends. We always have a great time there.

We made a trip to Michigan for Andy's grandpa's funeral. It was a nice service and it was fun to see everyone and even meet new family. We stayed with Jim's cousin (Andy's second cousin), Sally. She has a beautiful home and the kids enjoyed the pool. We were hoping to be able to make it to Montana this summer as well, but time/money will not allow us to be gone two times in one month.

Kaycee and Haylee started summer sports at the YMCA. Kaycee is playing basketball and loves it. Haylee is playing soccer and hates it. And yes.....I was the idiot who signed up to coach her team. Now I'm stuck coaching with a child who detests the sport.

Lisa, Madison, and Josiah are here visiting for about a week. Jerred was deployed to Iraq a few days ago. He will be gone for 6 months so Lisa and the kids will be moving up to Montana during that time. It's fun having them all here right now.

Hmm...it's been so long since we've seen these things.
