Our neighbors from our old house spent a week with us so that they could go to VBS with the kids. They had a great time together as you can see!
Wow when I look at the calendar I can hardly believe that the kids have already been out of school for 5 weeks! That means that summer is half over already. Some days that would make me sad but on days like today I can't wait for school to start back :) All kidding aside we have really been enjoying our summer together but we have been extremely busy! The kids have had something going almost every week since school ended. Cole has been to a baseball camp, a catchers camp, speed and agility training and VBS. Chloe has been to a soccer camp, VBS, and has another soccer camp this week. In between all these camps we have managed to find time to swim quite a bit in our neighborhood pool, have sleepovers with friends, go to the movies, and catch a Ranger Game or two!
However all the fun is about over for the kids. We got news last week that our landlord had received an irresistible offer on the house that we were renting...yes, a house that was not even on the market...therefore she is selling the house in which we call home. We have until August 31st to be out but since we were not looking at all we have a big job ahead of us! So just about everyday last week I spent several hours on the computer searching for the perfect house...then I would load the kids up in the car to go drive by or peer into the windows of my latest find. The kids are already sick of hearing "let's go look at a house!"
So Chris and I decided to take an impromptu mini vacation to Galveston with some friends this past weekend. We really figured that this might be the only opportunity we had to sneak away. Because the next month will be filled with house hunting, packing, and moving! The kids had a great time in Galveston. We spent a little time on the beach and we spent a day at Schlitterbahn. It was just a treat to get away and have some fun with the kids and our friends and leave our house worries behind for a few days! However we were home for less than an hour before we met with the realtor and went and looked at several houses! There is no time to waste if I am going to find my "diamond in the rough"!
Here are several pictures from the past month! (Sorry it has been that long...I will try to do better but you just heard how busy my next month is going to be!)
**I will post beach pics later when Blogger decides to cooperate!**
My SWEET Girls!
