ALMOST AUGUST

Hi Dear Family,
Can't believe summer is 1/2 over now. Of course, if we lived down in the Carribbean, it wouldn't be. We have been enjoying it though... Trying to put a years worth of activities into 3 months.
Weather here has been beautiful this week.... High 70's and low 80's. Nice break from that hot, humid weather.
Robin and I are looking forward to coming down to the Cayman Islands Oct 31-Nov 4. Will be a great time. Am also looking forward to the trip up north here shortly August 9-12. Will be fun trying out a new place. Glad Ryan, Teresa and Christian can make it. Will miss Frank and Christen, but once they get back here in Michigan, we will do a trip all together.
Heading up north August 25th for Christian's pirate birthday party..... Will be alot of fun... Can't believe Christian is going to be a big 6 years old...... The fishing should be fun there in the bay. Got a charter set up for Saturday night up there. Then Sunday morning, we will be heading to that great restaurant that has the big buffet.
Our weekends are booked up until September 8th so far. Whew!!!
The pictures on Frank and Christen's blogspot are so neat. Christian will love the turtle and stingray pictures. Can't wait until they can all visit there....
Work is starting to pick up a little here. Gas went down to a whole 2.95 a gallon.... Still crazy. I think the government thinks we all have money trees so that we can supply them with money to waste..... Don't get me going on that. ha!ha! This post would be really long....
Glad to hear things are going well for you all. What exciting lives you all are living...... I am so happy for all of you and so very proud......
Teresa said that the camping trip was fun. I miss camping... It is so relaxing and such great family time. The birthday girl!!!
We went out with Mark and Julie for his birthday. It is on same day as Teresa's. Last thing I heard when they pulled out of the driveway to go home. (Julie): Mark, don't sit on the birthday cake. (Mark) Help!!! He was afraid of Julie's driving...
Well, not much more going on here....Take care and I love you all so very much.....
Love,
Mom
