Anyone else know that Veggies Tales song? LOL “Busy, Busy, Dreadfully Busy, You Have No Idea, What I Have To Do” THat’s how it has felt around here.. We were in Oklahoma City, last week for a pastor’s conference and at the same time we arrived home (literally) our team of college students that runs our Vacation Bible School arrived, and this week is VBS. Guess who is in charge of VBS? Yeah.. that would be me. So add on top of that our laundry from the trip, a baby appointment and swim team practice every day and we feel pretty busy - but happy! We’re having a good summer.

Next week we are slightly less busy, and then my inlaws arrive for 2 1/2 weeks, so no things don’t really ever slow down in the summer, but that’s okay - it makes for fun memorable summers for the kids, and at this rate before we know it our new little one will be here as well!

Our garden is GRADUALLY growing. I was able to harvest quite a few more strawberries than last year, but they of course get gobbled up before they even make it to the fridge. No one can believe how much better they are than the store bought ones. I’m looking forward to the raspberries later in the summer - it looks like we will have a larger batch of those this year too! Good thing, such they are so expensive in the store and we all love them so much!

At the moment I am watching a friend’s little boy and my older two boys are helping my husband and VBS Team clean up two trees that were dead and they chopped down. I see a huge bonfire in the very near future! I’m off to an OB appointment in just a couple hours and then we have a swim meet tonight from 5:30 - 8:30. Oh and somewhere between 4 & 7 I am supposed to pick up our CSA Veggies as well. So, I better run! I hope you are having an awesome summer as well!
