Well, it's official. Trevor's last day of summer vacation is over. He will start his second year of HS tomorrow. Boy, summer went fast! I do LOVE the fall season but I still want to hang on to the last bit of this beautiful weather we've been having here in the Midwest high 70's low 80's. CJ and I walk 4 nights a week and it's just lovely to be able to walk without the high humidity. So unusual for this time of the year. Trevor said to me last week. "watch when I go back to school we're going to have a heat wave" Oh my goodness, he was right! The heat is coming back tomorrow!!! Oh well, he'll muttle through like every other year. I am going to miss him around the house. When the girls are gone on Tuesdays (they visit G&G Sills), it was nice to go to lunch with just Trevor and it's also nice to have someone else in the house when I'm working alone. I tend to get a little spooked...LOL... I laugh but it's so true! September is around the corner so that means our wedding anniversary is coming! CJ and I always go to this quaint little town called Galena. We stay in a B&B, frequent the same restaurants, shop the same shops and always go to 1-2 movies at the local theater. It's such a wonderful time to reconnect and just be alone and carefree. Now more than ever in our marriage do we need this get away. It's been a tough couple of weeks. With kids, the house, church, bible studies, family illness, etc... it seems our marriage can be put on the back burner and that's not where we want it to be! So we are both looking forward to this getaway more than any other year.
Anyway, here are some cute pics from the weekend. Enjoy and God bless!
Grandma and Grandpa came by for a visit on the motorcycle...
The girls with G&G
Summer project almost done... making a bird house with daddy.
I kept telling Rachel to "hold" her smile because I was having issues with the camera... Isn't that the cutest!
Sweeping the garage...look at those hands!! For us to see her gripping the broom is BIG TIME!! OT and exercise seems to be working! WAY TO GO LINZHI!
Big brother hugs...
No longer a freshman...now he's a Sophomore...

Trevor is the nicest boy. I can't believe he is a sophmore! Where does the time go? Those girls are just adorable! Amazing to see Linzhi holding a broom! I can't wait to see what she can do at this time next year!
What a great post, Amy! I love seeing Linzhi sweeping! Yay!
And yay for an anniversary trip too! That is SO important to reconnect!
