Summer Travel 2009

We have had such a busy summer this year!! We have traveled more than ever and had the opportunity to spend time with more family than in a very long time! I am so far behind in blogging, but I know the "dulldrums" will sink in when the world gets back on "school time". Funny how even if you no longer have children in school, it still influences your travel and various other activities.

William has been in San Antonio with us since July 18, (keeping us very busy), and will soon be going back home so he can start the 1st grade. He is very excited about it! Following his departure though, will come the dulldrums and I will try to fill that time with some really good blogging.

I've been to AR for a good long visit. Bill and I went to NC for a whole week of beach living and to witness the marriage of my niece, on a pier at a lighthouse. From there I went to VA with my sister and Bill went to AR to catch up with the kids. We then met in Searcy to spend a couple of days with Levi, Laura, Gavin and Carrigan before returning to SA.

Here's just a couple of great photos from that visit.
Zeke, Gavin and William in front of PF Changs where we met for dinner.










Levi, Gavin & William...they loved that big horse!
Carrigan loves reading with her G'pa!



G'pa can charm Gavin and Carrigan at the same time when he takes them for a little spin in the car. They love it!










Carrigan wasn't a big fan of G'ma this trip, but I'm still a big fan of hers!! Isn't that the sweetest little sad look?!

Gavin and G'ma enjoyed good reading time together

We have always felt so blessed to have our 5 Sons. The blessings just keep coming as we also have 2 Daughters (in-law) and 4 wonderful grandchildren....also another one who will make his/her entrance in January 2010!!
God is so good and faithful.
more to come soon.....
