...........................Where is the summer going?...

Well, let me start this off by saying
ZACK.....WE ARE SO EXCITED THAT YOU ARE COMING DOWN TO VISIT!!! We are planning boating and wakeboarding for you, a hike to Angora Lake and some kayaking with you (maybe a little lizard catching if you're up for it), waterslides and MAYBE the trampoline warehouse in Sac. with Brycen and Lazer Tag in Reno before you head home if Grandpa Dennis is up for it. SO , SLEEP BEFORE YOU COME DOWN, because we are going to tire you out!!

Back to the normal blogging stuff ,
Summer is running a little short this year, we have had some wierd weather patterns that is making us feel as if summer just started a month ago. Lisa's old reliable boat finally died so she bought a newer Reinell with tower and stereo so we can finish out the summer on it. Our family spent all day yesterday on it and plan the same today with a trip to Emerald Bay for a picnic and swimming . The boys have been wakeboarding up a storm but I think they will tube today since their arms are about ready to fall off.
Our luck at home with pet cats is really sucky to say the least, we lost our FAVORITE cat ever last week when he got out of a screen and a coyote had him for dinner . Our house felt so empty without Sox, that we went to North Shore on Sat. and adopted 2 rescue kittys. Only to find out on Monday that the girl kitty had FELV so we had to take her back yesterday. We did keep the orange boy, Sam and will re-test him in 3 weeks, so please keep your fingers crossed that our stream of bad luck has ended.
Dad and Ty are heading up to Washington in a few weeks so please keep your eyes open for sightings.
We love you and wish you an AWESOME END of summer............party and play your little hearts out.
Love Janelle and Family.

I figured that it would either be really, really good OR, really, really bad...........it was good!! Congrats on getting your license.

So much for a snails pace.

So, I don't know about you, but life around here seems to be snowballing for us. Faster....faster....faster. It seems the minute I turn around, one of our children is reaching yet another milestone in their lives. I try to relish the moment but so many times, it doesn't seem like we celebrate often enough some of lifes important memories or take note of some of the special messages we should be learning from our children. I am going to try to slow down a bit this month to focus a little more. (yes, it will be hard for me to slow down but I know it needs to be done.)
