End of Summer Vacation and Back To School...
We celebrated the end of Summer Vacation yesterday! Every Thursday has been Beach Day for the moms and kids from Church and the Community (organized by yours truly). It has been a fun tradition, one I look forward to each week. The kids have had fun with friends and the moms have had plenty of great adult conversation. I could tell my girls were ready for summer to end when Megan told me, "You know, the beach is always the same... The water just goes in and out and in and out......" She has obviously had her fill of the beach. Give her a month and she will be begging to see the water 'just go in and out and in and out'. A Saturday Beach trip will take care of that.
Generally, this time of year, I am more than ready for the routine that Back To School brings. This year, I find myself wishing we had just a few more weeks to enjoy each other.
The school supplies are purchased and ready, the clothes and new shoes are ready, the girls are excited and ready, the teachers have called...it is apparent.... I had better get ready!

Have you heard anything from Peru? I've been watching the news and checking the church sites to hear word on the missionaries.
From what I can see it looks like Dean is going to miss you, I hope, I hope.
Did you get NY's email about flight attendants?
Did you get your birthday gift?
I truly miss the Florida beaches. There's nothing like a tropical beach where the sand is clean and you can see your toes in the water. I had high hopes of taking the babies to the beach however I wasn't able to find any type of lagoon or bay other than Mission Bay in San Diego. Newport and Corona were great as teenagers but not for little ones. "A" starts 2nd grade on Monday but perhaps on his first holiday, NY and I can take everyone to see the battleship in San Diego and then go to Mission Bay.
I wish I would have bit the bullet and joined you all at the beach on Thursdays. I just might have to fly out Wednesdays next year to go with you on Thursdays. :)
I'm seeing a doctor and the main goal is to overcome my agoraphobia. She seem very positive so I am too!
Looks like fun...hope you're not all 'beached out' next week when Carmen and I are there!
