Summer Time Finally! June 1-16

The first week of summer we just took it easy and tried to get into the swing of summer. All 3 of the kids made the Hast Summer Swim team again so each day from 12:30-1:30 we have swimming. I have been able to go with them and find a lane so I can swim at the same time. Which has been working GREAT!
We of course have been crazy busy with all the kids finishing up with their baseball games. It has been so fun to watch them all get a little better with each game they play. I love the encouragement they receive from their team and that they give to their team members and each other. At Bowdee's last game he hit a full on over the fence home run! He was so excited that was amazing to watch.
This week I have mostly been excited to go see Matia's dance performance on Saturday. She is such an amazing performer she stands out because of her amazing smile and attitude that she dances with. Thank you Matia for dancing for us you are truly amazing.
The second week of summer on June 10th Terry and I fell in love. For the longest time Terry and I have wanted to live on a farm to give our kids a little bit of what we grew up with as far as experiences, responsibilities and let them enjoy the magic of childhood that comes from a farm. We drove with my brother Kyle to a 5.25 acre farm down by my Aunt Dixies. But as of yesterday it is under contract. So we put in a backup offer just in case something happens.
Wednesday LanDesk (Terry's employers) took us to Lagoon. The kids had so much fun as Terry and I walked around dreaming about the farm and the possibilities. The rides make us so sick anymore that it is nice they are old enough to say "Have fun" and we just wave from the side lines on most of them. We stayed until they closed and we didn't want to leave we had so much fun!
Saturday we took another drive down to the farm by the lake and this time the kids found 3 kittens Matia would like to call the farm the Miracle Farm because she says some different kind of miracle happens every time we go there. We spent the rest of the day tiling our basement trying to finish it up for carpeting.
