Catching up for the last month...

Since we last posted things have been kind of fun and crazy for us. It started with Gwen taking a dive off a bunk bed and breaking her arm. This was made bearable by the fact that she got to choose the color of her cast and only had to have it on for 3 weeks. She actually broke both bones; however, she was moving it around fine the night it happened so we didn't take her to Urgent Care until the next day. After taking the x-rays the nurses were very surprised at how much she was still using it. Apparently we better watch her closely she is one pretty tough little girl.

This was followed very soon with Jared being Student of the Month for September. They always do the assemblies at the first of the next month.

Then we continued on to Jared's 7th Birthday. He is getting to be so big. Time has sure flown by. We are so glad to have this guy in our family.

As you can tell he got just what he wanted.

The Raingutter Regatta for scouts came this same week and we got Nate's boat made the night before. We love this activity and would trade it in for the Pinewood Derby any day. Despite the look of this picture Nate did win this race.

We also have been taking a Kung Fu class as a family which we have really enjoyed. We all earned our white belts this month.

So despite our lives being turned a little upside down...

And sometimes feeling completely worn out...

Life goes on without too much wear and tear.
