July 2018

Hello friends!  Long time, no see!  I have to be honest, blogging completely took the back burner to homeschool planning and school.  I'm going to work to catch up over the next few weeks, so we will begin where we left off with July...

Fun in Americus

We enjoyed Tuesdays at the library for special programs this summer, in addition to fun in our pool and time with sweet friends.

 Another visit to Johns Creek

We were thrilled to make another trip up to Johns Creek to celebrate Gregg and Jared's birthdays and visit with family and friends.  My dear friend, Kristen, and her family were in town from Denmark.  They come to the states twice a year, so I plan trips up based on when they will be in town!

We were grateful to get to spend a day with Kristen, Morten, Vega, and Atlas.  Gregg was working in Atlanta and came back to my parents' house after work...

We love the AAC pool!

Such a fun day!

Ready to head back home to Americus!

Back to Americus

We had a fun trip, but were ready to get back home so I could plan the school year.  Zeke was getting ready to start 3rd grade and Adalynn was ready to start kindergarten.  It's always so hard to believe how quickly they grow!

I'll conclude here.  Thanks for your patience.  I hope you enjoy looking back over our summer with us.  Stay tuned for our August update!  Blessings to you all!
