July has flown by and boy did we have a month of activity! We got to go on a great family trip to Yellowstone with Evan's family. The kids had a great time and it was fun watching them see new things. Payson thought the geyser's were "SO amazing" and Aaron can't stop talking about the chipmunk that they tried to capture. All and all the kids behaved really well and we got to have a really good time with each other.
Aaron started gymnastics this month and is really really good at it. We are so proud of the way he is trying and making improvements every day. Devin and Travie start football this coming week. This will be Travie's first year so we will see how it goes. He really wants to do it so hopefully it will be a good experience for him. Bekah and Payson are still doing gymnastics and will do swimming lessons next month. Lexie is growing so fast! I can't believe how big she is getting and this month she started saying some new words. It's been a lot of fun.
Evan got confirmation that he will deploy the middle of November so we are starting to get things and kids ready for that. We are blessed that he has gotten a "easy" assignment and I am just relieved that he is not going to Baghdad again. He has been enjoying time with the kids and has had a little stress at work but surviving. I am still working with Probation and trying to finish up school. I am now doing my internship along with classes so I am gone a lot of the time. It gets frustrating, but I am SO close to being done!!!!
Sadly I do have to report that Kristie's (Aaron, Travis, and Bekah's mom) father passed away this month from a courageous fight with cancer. The kids are dealing with it fairly well and are glad that he is in heaven and feeling no more pain. Our thoughts are still with Kristie as she goes through this very difficult time.
With that all said I want to let you all know that we are thinking of you and appreciate your blogs so that we can feel like we are a part of your world! Under this is a slideshow of our fun trip. The kids help put it together and they are SO proud!
Love you all,
Tami
