Summer

It's JULY!! What has happened to summer?  It's more than halfway over!  I am trying to enjoy the rest of it while I can. Our summer has actually been relaxing.  We had VBS the first week in June, but other than that we haven't had any commitments.  There is not much to do at Ft. Irwin unless you want to travel an hour and a half to go into town.  But there's not much to do...

Whole30, days 15-17

I just finished day 17 yesterday, so I'm going into day 18.  The past couple days have been awesome, but very hard.  It's been awesome because for over a week, I've been waking up at 4:15am and have been able to accomplish a lot before the kids wake up.  And I've been working out!  Woo hoo!  However, I am taking naps in the afternoon.

I'm drooling and dying at the same time right now.  And...

Rest

Yay, for me! It's my second post for this blog! And it's within 4 months!  I'm on a roll, haha! Anyway, for the past week or so, we have been keeping it chill. Meaning that we have not been waking up at certain times, very lazy days relaxing watching movies, reading, playing games, and we haven't really left the house.  It may sound so boring, but it was rest.  And maybe that's what...

This is our family.  And this is our family digital scrapbook!  This is my 7th blog I have created in the past 10 years.  Yikes.  Fingers crossed, this one will stay active for more than a month. Since I don't scrapbook and I don't have photo albums, I thought this would be a...
