I can't believe it's August already! As much as I'm looking forward to getting back to a routine I'm also not looking forward to the end of summer. Chris will be taking a week vacation in a couple of weeks and I'm really looking forward to enjoying some summer activities with the family!
Lauren, Blaine and Owen finished up swim team this past weekend and did great. Chris and I were so proud of them. This was their first year swimming on a competitive team and I wasn't quite sure how they would do. They did quite well for their first year. Lauren is interested in joining a year round swim team.
Chris and I have been helping with the Children's ministry at Metro for the summer which has kept us quite busy Sunday mornings. Chris has been having loads of fun; he is so great with children! Lauren and I have been teaching the 4-5year olds which has been quite a challenge but fun at the same time. I have to admit that I am looking forward to the end of summer as it's been hard to help out and take care of Eden at the same time. We plan to stay involved in some capacity..I'm just not sure what that is going to look like just yet.
Raising teenagers, school aged children and a baby has been a new and interesting adventure for me. I plan to blog about that soon. Right now it's back to laundry...
