He's Baaaaaacckk...

So...as most of you know, Jon made it home a little over a week ago. YEEEEAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! :D It's been a kind of crazy week readjusting to him being back. It always is. The girls are adjusting pretty well. They spent the first day of him home stuck to him like velcro! They sat, hung, climbed, and walked next to him the ENTIRE day. It was kinda funny to watch. lol.

It's been crazy hot here this past week! It was 100+ for a few days. So we've been spending a lot of days in the pool, at Water Country or at the Splash Park. The kids have definitely been enjoying it. We haven't tried to do it yet, but we might try to fry an egg on the sidewalk! The kids would probably have a lot of fun with it. So we'll see.

Last night I went on a boat for the first time in years. If you don't know, I don't like boats. Not because there's anything wrong with boats or the water, but because I get violently motion sick. I can't even ride as the passenger in a car without getting sick. So I took some new motion sick meds and actually did good! I didn't get sick. Well, not until a storm about hit us. It was kind of cool, watching the lightning on the water and to see the huge dark wall of rain. The storm didn't actually hit us (thankfully) but it did shake things up for us.

This week will be another busy one for us. We have some fun mornings at church and some nights up there as well. This week we are having Adventure Days for 2 days and Preschool Fun Day 1 day. Adventure Days are one of my favorite things all year. It is so much fun! The kids get to play fun, messy games and learn about God too. I have lots of fun playing with the kids and loving on them. So I'm looking forward to having some messy fun. :) We have a 2 band practices this week in preparation for the last Genesis service and the first service in the new worship center. There is so much hard work going into making this transition smooth and easy. Thank you everyone who has been working, preparing, training, getting trained, etc to make this possible.

On top of all the craziness of life, we have been dealing with behavior issues (again) with Amara. Her meds have been getting changed around by the doctors and she has been having big mood swings. She is also not enjoying her classes on Sunday mornings right now. Not sure why, but she has been defiant and refusing to go into large group and just causing issues all around. Please say a prayer for her and for us if you think about it. This aspect adds a lot of stress to our lives and makes even the simplest of things very difficult. Thank you!
