Summer 2008

I guess we all learn as we go on this blog thing, some quicker than others, anyway got more photos i will add later. We did manage to get Ali on a boat trip or two, Chloe and Kaitlyn have been also having alot of fun this summer, as well as with all her Mississsippi Cousins, and Georgia Cousins, We had a great time at six flags, Chloe is going through the empty nest syndrome, we been housesitting for Sandra protecting her stuff from would be thieves lol, anyway she seems lost without her cousins from Miss. We got Anna Nicholson to spend the night with us last night I think it helped Chloe get through her empty feeling. Cause this House the LAKEHOUSE has been packed with all kind of folks between Surprise Birthdays for Brandon , six flags, 4th of July. Family Reunions seems pretty quite around here this morning anyway may hear an occasional hammer, which means progress for Sandra, and this will be her last Summer to have to leave her Lake Place, she will be here next May be here for ya know it sis.

Anyway, Ali got her drivers permit yesterday only missed two, so i decided to let her drive home. WELL I was a nervouse wreck trying to keep her in the road and out of ditches, and not hitting men working, yes it was close. LoL . Few narrow bridges made me sweat too. She definately needs some practice and maybe in a smaller vehicle. I think I will send Rando on the next driving lesson, I make her way too nervouse screaming at her. She got to learn to hit gas not so fast and brake not so abruptly and work on getting into our driveway without almost taking out the BIG TREE at the end of it. It is definately gonna be a trip this driving thing.

Chloe has driven more than ALi seems like she always bugging to drive down driveway or to Anna Kilgores up the road, Ali has had maybe occassional golf cart drive, but not in a while cuz its broke down, So really she is a green horn.

Hard to believe my kids are growing up so fast, Brandon and Christy enjoy the younger years they will be over way too soon.

We have had alot of camps this summer, Chloe went to University of Alabama for 8 days, was suppose to be 12 but we got homesick, and you cant stick a Auburn girl in the middle of Alabama campus and expect her to be happy for two weeks, I do feel she got alot out of the wk she went, she hasnt lost a race yet since, hoping to win all our races at state swim, she goes to volleyball camp with a few team members on her school team this month as well and the whole group going to another camp a wk later, all are in Hanceville so maybe it wont be so bad GAS WISE. WHO AM I KIDDING RT.

ALI HAS BAND CAMP ALSO THE LAST TWO WEEKS OF JULY. So hers will be from 3-9, she lucked out gets to sleep late, chloes are in the morning mostly. Anyway I will try to find some photos of this summer i know i have more just got to put them on puter from camera, maybe it wont be so long till i blog again next time. As Chloe would say TOOTLES!!!!!!
