September - Hurricane month


This has been a crazy month - we missed a week of school thanks to Gustav - and then Ike flooded our neighborhood - here we are feeding the ducks from our back deck! Yes the ducks were really swimming around our yard!

August - First day of school!


The first day of school!
Eli is in the 7th grade - luckily he is still not into girls!!!! Christian is in the 4th grade! They both love school and do really well - we are very proud of them!

July 2008




This month Eli turned 12 - I was so not ready for that! We went on a cruise for our vacation - fun! Ruco and Kristi leave for Uganda this month - sad! I hope they bring me a Uganda baby back when they come!! We are having a great summer - and we are not ready for school to start in August!!!

June


We are out of school and have already been to Michigan - for Alex and Brian's wedding - FUN! and to see our family and friends in Michigan. We had a great time - I even got to go shopping at IKEA with my favorite friend Kristie - which is now my favorite store - except they had no shoes!!!


We are also excited because Kristi and Ruco are coming home for a few weeks - yeah!
