Summer is cruising at ramming speed with Daniel starting his 3rd
week of Junior Lifeguards on Monday. He is physically exhausted, building
muscles and sleeping like a baby.

First Day of Junior Life Guards |
Lucas has been
missing for almost two weeks, going to Lake Tulloch with the church youth group
for Fryathon. He had an awesome time wake boarding, tubing and flying off the
Banana Boat.
 |
Lucas is front right |
Guess what? He returned with a mullet haircut and sunburn (both
bad). Reminding myself that a haircut is not a tattoo, I’ve embraced the joy of
seeing his eyes unhidden by his usual scraggly hair. Now I can see his handsome
face! But oh, it is a butcher’s cut. And he loves it.
 |
Just say NO to Mullets and Sunburns |
This past week his Arizona friend,
Jenny, visited California. Lucas tagged along on trips to Universal Studios,
Magic Mountain, and Malibu Beach. It was non-stop!
 |
Jenny and Lucas ... They sort of looked related! |
These two share a special friendship, having
met on a Mammoth Ski trip put on by Camp Del Corazon six years ago. These two teens have the biggest hearts and I mean that! Jenny's parents joined us for a BBQ hosted by
Overboard at Larryland. Cutie Pie and Baby Benson hung out with us too!
Have I mentioned that
I am in love with my nephew? Benson is oodles of fun! So sweet, so innocent, and kid silly. I’m hooked!
Yesterday, Lucas and I visited Santa Barbara to start his 24-hour Holter monitor heart test. This is to make
sure his ticker is clicking, as it should. He will remove the wires (think
Million Dollar Man) just in time to attend a wedding today.
Chicken Report: All
our nine feathered friends are alive and we currently receive three eggs a day. We have had a
couple days with four eggs and this means another one is starting to lay. It is crazy
to think that soon all nine chickens will be laying. Nine eggs a day? Just receiving three eggs a day, I have
been handing out half-dozen eggs like flyers for an upcoming event (stop by for yours today).
Hands down, working
in Education is the best job for a mom. You can’t beat having summers off to
recharge (and shop at Target – it’s clearance time!). This is the season to appreciate all the blessings I’ve missed
when I was zooming to work.
Cheers to Summertime, CLINK!
