May is here! Cassie has almost completed her 1st year at college - - and Morgan is ending her soccer season at her school. It has truly been a fun soccer season for us and I've enjoyed going to see her play. It's almost time to move Cassie back home for the summer....so I'm getting excited to having a family of 4 again!!! I know things will be quite different with her being pretty much on her own the past few months, but I know it will be great! She gets to find a job for the summer - notice - I said GETS TO! ;0) She has had it pretty easy thru her high school years and this summer her dad and I - and HER AS WELL - think its time she gets a little spending money on her own efforts - I think she is kind of excited about it - mostly nervous since she has never had to apply for employment before....awwww...new beginnings for her!
Morgan will be busy this summer (hopefully) doing some baby sitting and also helping out at God's Mountain some. She will also be going to tennis camp and soccer camp with the school. I will work full-time through the summer - its the 1st for me since I started working for the law firm in Jan 2002 - so I'm somewhat dreading not having that time with my girls and also time I spend on the house doing remodeling jobs- but they will be busy and the money will be nice to have with the expenses of college and all that still remains...like the house remodeling projects! I do have a few things on my TO DO list to accomplish even though I'll be working full-time - so my evenings will be spent working hard on the house! Would really like to get Cassie's room remodeled this summer - so if I do get that started - she will be taking over the 3rd floor of our home for the summer! Morgan's room needs to be painted as well...so much to do, so little time it seems!
My folks also got a new travel trailer, so we do hope to spend many weekends on the lake with them - I enjoy the outdoors so much and spending time with my mom, and my girls enjoy it down in the country as well.
Rob has been busy with work and doing some tree trimming in our yard - he and Eric Martin (his friend since teenage years) came and did the tree climbing part - I wish I would have thought to take a photo of the two of them that day! It was quite the sight to come home to on my lunch hour! Rob is in Maryland this week, last week it was San Diego - so his job is keeping him real busy....
I'm excited that May is here - but also know its going to be a very busy summer...looking so forward to the sunshine filled summer days!!! and yard work! ;0)
Enjoy the sunshine!
Blessings!
