Two more days!

The little people returned from camp. Go figure it was my kid who had the only accident while there. My youngest played basketball and ended up with a fractured wrist and an appointment to see a specialist. The splint isn't so bad, except reminding him to keep it on is a pain.

We are now counting down the days until school starts, only 2 more days to go! They are making goals to be on honor roll all year long, again. I hope they keep up with the advanced classes too. In the mean time I've been inspired, some more!

Peace & Quiet

The little people are off to camp and I miss them already. There's no noise except the cicada's outside in the trees and Hobbes is catching up on his zzz's. 
So what to do for the next 3 days? 
Turn the music up 
&
 Create!
So far...
the coolest hot pads,
 rainbow coasters,
 the sneek peek of a bag I started today,
and the Yogi Bear dice bag.

Garden of the Gods!

An adventure! We kept the kids from knowing exactly where they were going. Even as we were driving there I would send a text to the older ones in the car behind us of what exits to look for as we came up to them. Shawnee National Forest was just like a grown up play ground to them. This was our last full day with Connor before he took off to the Army.
