So Great Escape was a great weekend. Seth's parents were here for the big camping trip...and over 130 people from church took part in the weekend. It was a great time! We're now recooperating from a busy fgew weeks. Seth's parents are back in IL...and life here is starting to get back to normal.
We took last Friday night off and went camping with some friends, spent Saturday on the lake wakeboarding and playing in the water, and then called it a day. It was a fun 24 hours.
We're now looking at a Jr. High leadership retreat in the next month. Seth is hoping to get a strong group of students to help "lead" the JH group into the school year. Should be a good kick-off to fall. And school will be starting soon which means I'll be back to subbing. It sounds like I'm getting a set sub job on Thursday mornings - same time, same day, same school. That'll be so nice! I'm going to slowly begin phasing out of Children's Ministry at church. Its been a great almost 2 years, but I feel like God is saying its time for a break and that I should give in other areas.
Anders is keeping us busy. He's all over and into everything. Still loves his dog and saying "daga" more than anything else. When we leave the house..he gives Payton treats. If we leave her water dish out...he plays in the water and then dumps it. If he needs a hug...he gives Payton one. If he gets sleepy, he lays his head on Payton. Its just tooo cute! We're hoping he starts using words...more than just "dog" real soon.
It's official....we are taking a real vacation. And by real, I mean a trip outside of CA, but not to IL. We're heading to Colorado at the end of September. We'll visit some friends while were there and just enjoy a week away. A much needed week away. We are very much looking forward to this trip....and extremely thankful for how it all worked out.
Anyway....we're still working on keeping this updated. And still not doing great. For now, I need to go...Anders is opening the oven door. We're working on the word "hot" but so far its just a funny word.
