The Bunch Are Wondering Where Summer Went

  This was literally the ONLY picture I took this week. 😂 The dogs chewing their bones side by side. They only get a bone on Tuesdays and no worries it's NOT rawhide. We were busy moving hay this week and doing chores so not a very fun week. I will take more pictures next week when we have some fun stuff planned. We have been so busy this summer! Our local school district starts back to school on August 4th. I haven't decided if T will go back to school then or August 18th. We usually start back the first Monday in August, but we might take one last trip before everything gets going in the fall. I cannot believe this is his last year of school and my last year of homeschooling. I wasn't sure we would do it all the way through. There were a few times I almost decided to give up, but we stuck with it and I wouldn't go back and change anything for the world. I had the opportunity to spend so much time with all my kids as they grew and changed. I would have missed so much ...

The Bunch Have Fun And Eat An Abundance Of Melons

He loves his boxes.  This past week T went to his church camp for a week. He has been doing this every summer for about 7 years. He loves it and very much looks forward to it every summer. The past 3 years, since A has been old enough to stay home alone, when the kids have gone to camp for the week, D and I head out to go do some camping on our own. This time while T was away, we headed to Lake Bonham. We did not stay at the Texas State Park. We mentioned in June that we never planned to stay there again until all the updates were done and it was easier to get in and out. We stayed at Lake Bonham owned and operated by the City of Bonham. H had found it for us when we moved them in June to their lake house. It is less than 7 minutes from them by road and maybe one minute by boat. It was VERY different staying there than at anywhere else we have stayed. First off, all reservations are done online, as in you HAVE to go online to register for a spot. There is no other option. We you ar...

The Bunch Have A Fun Fourth

  Axl loves cuddles from T.🥰 After dealing with Axl for 2 weeks, he is FINALLY healed from his surgery. At least enough to get his stitches out and stop bleeding all over our carpet. I had just steamed cleaned all the carpets last month, now I am doing it again. Actually, I might just rip the carpet up, put some rugs down, and deal with getting new flooring when we can.  Theme night at camp this year is the 70's, T understood the assignment!😂 Starbucks gave him a pup cup and  at the pharmacy he got a Milkbone. Axl LOVES car rides!!! This is the first time since we moved here that the fourth has fallen on a weekend and the first fourth where it has rained so much that noone was afraid of grass fires. You would have thought we were at war with the neighboring street! It was so loud and constant for about 2 hours! Literally all but two houses on our street set off fireworks, us included. We had about $200 worth of fireworks that we never set off last year. It was actually ...
