Busy, Fun, July, Temple

Wendy and her parents outisde the Newport Beach Temple.
Shadow and Christy at the scout breakfast on the fourth.

This month will be a busy one for us. We picked up Shadow last Friday and if everything goes right we will have her with us until David leaves. We are not sure when David will be leaving, the date seems to keep changing. Christy and I will be moving at the end of the month. We found a cute townhouse to rent while in St. George. My little sister Crystal will be living with us. Hopefully I will be able to get Christy enrolled in Little Valley elementary so that she can go to school with Michael. Crystal will be my babysitter as well as Alisha's and it will work so much better if Christy can go to the same school as Michael. We are both excited and sad to move. For the fourth of July we went to a scout breakfast, swimming and bowling. We did not stay up to watch fireworks. The girls had a lot of fun. Yesterday the girls and I spent the day in Orange County. I went to the Newport Beach Temple with the Andersens. Wendy was taking her endowments out. The temple was beautiful. Small but beautiful. I wish David could have been there as well. We are so excited for Wendy! We love her so much. Tammy had lined up Josh and a few girls from her ward to babysit all the kids at her house while we were at the temple. After the session we all went back to Tammy's and had yummy, yummy food and the kids went swimming. Wendy also hosted a Lia Sophia jewelery party. I bought some cute stuff. I will post pictures of what I got when I get it. We are enjoying our summer so far. Christy is still in school. She gets out July 21st. We have lots of fun activities planned and lots of family coming to visit. Plus somewhere in all this madness I need to make a trip to St. George. And I have to get my house cleaned I have two move out inspections scheduled. Ugh!!!! I am having trouble uploading my pictures. I really need my own computer at home, this business of coming to the computer lab is getting seriously annoying! I had more cute pictures but I am not patient enough to keep trying. I have other stuff to do. Oh yesterday I spent some time visiting with Campbell and Mary. Campbell is my cousin and he and his family live in Canada. Mary was telling em how expensive it was to live there. Their milk cost over $5 a gallon. I am so grateful that I only pay $1.99. I realize there are a lot of things that I take for granted. Enough of my rambling.

She's in school 'til July 21!?!?! Good grief! I'm pretty glad I don't teach in SoCal, that's for sure. I'd die. Seriously. We're drivin' down there July 22 and staying through the weekend though; I'm so excited. It's been two years since I've been to California and that's far too long in my opinion. :)

Just be careful in all that you are doing. Cherishing the time with david and Shadow and Christy is the best part of summer. Be safe and will see you in the next few weeks.
