Wacky Wednesday - Check in
No formal questions. Just let us know how you are, what you've been up to, any fun summer plans, or whatever. It feels like everyone has been MIA, so let's catch up!

On a positive note, J and Wes will still go so at least it will be peaceful at home.

Wes: 10/8/2012
We're going to Cherrystone, VA for camping in July. Can't wait! We also have tickets to a 4 day country music festival in August. We will definitely squeeze in some kayaking day trips as well.
my read shelf:
I'm here, kind of! Summer has been incredibly busy so far. So far this summer we've dealt with an injury and stitches for DD, house work (tiled our shower and had hardwoods installed), multiple illnesses for DD, and trips to the pool and playdates when we can fit them in. Oh, and rain. And more rain.
I've been reading the same book for about three weeks now because I am so tired at night!
July and August should be calmer. The next big thing I am looking forward to the is Garth Brooks concert on July 4th. Then my birthday a week later.
Oh my! That outfit is a doozy. I know it isn't nice to judge, but I bet that would raise some eyebrows!

"People talk about escapism as if it's a bad thing... Once you've escaped, once you come back, the world is not the same as when you left it. You come back to it with skills, weapons, knowledge you didn't have before. Then you are better equipped to deal with your current reality."
