Where have you been?

Again, with the slacker blogger-itis. Well, in current news, it’s hot as blue blazes in TN. Heat indexes as high as 115. There is just no need for this.



So, I’m just gonna do a quick update of the past 2 months. Here we go-



May—Strawberry Festival! Always fun. Lots of food, parade, family time. Elizabeth spent the night with a new friend. They had a large time. End of school. E had the highest average in her class, got the principal’s award, and the 3rd grade PE award. I turned 35. Ugh. Daddy got back test results. BIG BAD AND UGLY. :( Stage IV Melanoma. Thankfully, the FDA just approved a new treatment. Not cure. Treatment.



June-Amy got a NASTY case of poison oak. On the plus side, E and I are definitely NOT allergic to poison oak. Girls Weekend!!! Headed to the beach with my Peppas for a few days of fun in the sun. And fun in the sun we had. SUCH a needed break from reality. Came home on a Sunday night, got up Monday morning and left for family vacation in Gatlinburg. Another GREAT time with old friends. One of the highlights of the trip was spending the day at Ober Gatlinburg. I need to post some pics of all of this!!! Jason’s birthday. Father’s day. Amy turned 4,567 cartwheels on the living room floor.



July-Enjoyed the 4th with friends. Grilled meat, blew stuff up. Good times. Daddy had his first treatment, and it went GREAT. Work work work. HOT HOT HOT!!! Bought a little (8 ft wide 3 ft deep) pool and set it up on the carport. The kids LOVE it. Amy taught herself to swim. She looks so cute with all four little limbs flailing under the water. Amy got swimmer’s ear, not more swimming for 10 days. Dislike. :(



So, that’s it til now. E is at Grams and Granddaddy’s for a few days, and then Amy will go. E and I have a weekend planned at the science museum, as well as HARRY POTTER this weekend. :)
