Three Ring Circus

Hi!

I have the luxury to write this to you all in the comfort of my air-conditioned kitchen which at the moment is a cool-ish 77 degrees compared to the 104 feels like 110 that is currently outside. Let me be r-e-a-l honest here for a moment and say that while I am a summer-loving girl, I do not appreciate the baking oven feeling outside.  A baking oven is used for making cookies and cupcakes.  Not outside temperatures.  That being said however, it is summer time and this weekend will be the start of July already.  That is crazy.  Crazy also describes my life at the moment--my world is essentially the same as a three ring circus in which I am the lion tamer.  I am not complaining about it because I really don't think I would be happy with it any other way, but I say the lion deserves a few weeks vacation!  Oh well.... let's get to it!

Colorado. 

Please keep Colorado in your thoughts and prayers as there are numerous wild-fires destroying not only the beautiful mountains, but homes and buildings as well.  There is a fire in Colorado Springs right now that was very close to my Dad's house, but for the moment appears to be heading north which doesn't help the people that way, but that means it should miss my Dad's house.  They have evacuated the Academy and several different parts of the Springs and surrounding areas but please just keep them all in your thoughts and prayers--we really appreciate it!


Emmalyn.

Dear Sweet Emmalyn-- we are patiently awaiting your arrival but we feel like you should just come on out and visit us!  Your momma also agrees because 110 degrees doesn't sit well with us non-pregnant folks so I can only imagine how she feels--show her some mercy :) My mom and I have looked at the full moon schedule and it shows that the next full moon will be July 3rd which is right there next to your due date.  Your momma had another check-up today and she is starting to see some progress so fingers crossed you are ready to meet us soon!  We can't wait to meet you!  We love you! 

This Weekend.

This weekend will be the end of June and the beginning of July--CRAZY! But that also means that I will be in Kansas City running the Color Run which I hear is super fun!  I can't wait!  Expect some pictures from that!! :)  Cam will not be joining me in Kansas City because he decided that going wheelin' would be more fun that a 6 hour car-ride and standing around--I guess I can't blame him :)  He will be going to Tuttle Creek in Manhattan with a bunch of friends and co-workers for the day which he will love!

4th of July.

One of my favorite holidays!  Can't wait! 


I also got to go out and visit my Momma for a little while at the beginning of this week which was awesome!  Wish I could get to do it more :( But I love spending time with her and am excited for Emmalyn to get here so she can come stay for a little while!  This post is pretty short because if I wrote about everything going on in my circus you would be reading a novel--but I will write again soon! :)

It's Almost Friday!
