This week

Wow, I can't believe that it's already Friday! We've been on the go this week. VBS has been tons of fun for the boys. I picked them up a little early yesterday and got to see some of the group time at the end. They sing a song, which Joshua told me he likes, and most of the kids are enthusiastically singing along and doing the motions. Not my boys! Joshua sat on the floor half the time and Gray usually had his ears covered:) Then after the song, Gray jumped on Joshua and both boys had their fists out trying to wrestle and punch each other. Joshua tells me they were mostly good, so hopefully this was the only incidence of fighting. Ugh, boys! Anyway, today is family day so they are excited to get cotton candy and play on those blow up bounce house things, though time will tell if they will actually participate in those. They usually won't do it unless they are with kids they know.

So this week I have gone to VBS and helped in the nursery 2 days and that has been good. I've enjoyed getting to know some of the people at Stacy's church. On Tuesday, we dropped the kids off and Matt and I met with an architect to talk about our house plan. We think he's going to be really helpful in adjusting the plan we have drawn to make it work the best for our family and be the most energy efficient....if we can afford him, that is! Then on Thursday we met with some real estate agents who talked to us about what they thought we could sell our house for and what they would do to sell it for us if we decide to hire them. We are still thinking it will be the fall before we can do anything.

So that has been our mornings this week. We have also worked on house plan stuff, worked on gym stuff, given Joshua another swimming lesson (this one went really well!), taken some things to the Burmese family, gone to the grocery store, cleaned the house, etc. etc! The boys have enjoyed our baby pool a few times this week and have ended up covered head to toe in wet sand, which is always fun! Julia has done well through it all, though she seems to have picked up a little runny nose this week. It's funny how fast we get used to everyone being healthy! Seems like forever since we've been sick.

So I need to run now...last day of VBS begins in an hour! Check out this movie Matt made for his gym this week. Last night he and I had to make the soundtrack using the "Garage Band" program on our computer. Pretty tough, but very cool!
