SUMMER!!!!!

So today was the kids "official" last day of school. Ember has been out for over a week and got here Friday June 4th. We have been really busy with trying to visit Chris's family from out of town, finish up sports, and get ready for a week in Oregon.

Keisha is now asking to be called a freshman. She is very proud to be in high school and can't quit talking about it. Ember just finished 6th grade and is moving to junior high. She seems excited as she will be going to a new school (they are moving) and new friends. Audrey and Autumn just finished 5th and are headed to middle school...it seems weird that the three 11 year old are all headed into the same situation, just different grades. Jalen will now be the last of them left in grade school....sad :( they all grew up way to fast.

Thursday we are leaving for the coast. We have rented an awesome house on the beach with a hot tub. Kids are excited! Chris and I cant wait for some relaxation of our own. It will definitely not be a full on relaxing vacation as we need to keep the kids entertained and are planning many day trips to the aquarium and such. I will be posting as we go along (we are there for a FULL week) so I don't get behind. Plus this is our first ever vacation with ALL five kids.

So ...until the next time I get on.....
