HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT

We aren't moving! :( My uncle wanted way more than I could afford, so we're stuck here until I can find something else.

New hair cuts and fun in the sun

Well, here's Raven's new hair cut! Isn't it cute?!? I told her that I hated her because she can wear her hair like that, I just LOVE it!!

They had Vacation Bible School and started Camp Reads-A-Lot last week. The Camp is through the school and is on Tuesdays and Thursdays through the whole summer and VBS was only a week. They had to miss two days of VBS and they were bummed, but they enjoyed camp too. They LOVED VBS! They learned some good songs and learned that God gives us the power to be brave....Eureka!

We went to Dutton Days with Maddie, Melanne and Natalie. It was pretty fun. They had lots of those bounce house things for the kids to play on and other games. The best part...it was free!! There was also a craft show that Mel and I got some stuff at. All in all it was a good weekend. Now we have to get ready for Camp Roger, camping and moving!

I've started packing for the move, you never know how much junk you have until you have to pack it! LOL I've decided that with this move, I'm getting rid of junk, and boy have I, my mom would be proud!! Off to do more packing...bye!

Cheerleading, fishing and motorcycling..oh my!

What a weekend! Raven had cheerleading camp Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. She loves her cheerleading! She got an award for most spirited! She absolutely loves cheering with the FHE (Forest Hills Eastern) cheerleaders. Those girls are wonderful! They are so good with the little ones and even the older ones, like Raven, who are a little shy. She had a great time and is getting pretty good. Friday, after cheering, she had her class party at her teacher's house on Green Lake. I took the afternoon off to take her and boy and I glad I did. What a beautiful lake! I had never been there before, it is gorgeous! Raven had fun. She went kayaking, swimming, boating and fishing. She even caught a bass! It was a bittersweet day for the kids and Mr. Miller. They were a great group of kids who will miss Mr. Miller a lot, and he will miss them.

I didn't forget Michael. He got to get picked up by his grandpa on Friday and hung out with him for a while. When I picked him up we went to Playworld with Melanne and Natalie. What a disappointment. For me, not so much the kids. They charge you to get in, there's only a couple of bouncy things for the kids to play on and the arcade games didn't work properly. Next time we're going to Chuck E. Cheese.

Saturday we went to Cutlerville Days with Melanne, Natalie, Chris and Leah (Leah is Natalie's friend from school and Chris is her mom). We had a good time there was a craft show, car show, it was fun. The kids got to get their faces painted, Raven and Michael got their hair colored and they got some jibbets (decorations for their crocs). After that we went to Chris and Leah's house to go swimming and have dinner. It was fun, the kids got along great! On the way home it started raining, but that didn't stop the fireworks from going on. We watched them from the car and by the grand finale the kids and I were on our scary journey home. The wind and the rain were horrible! It was knocking down construction signs and blowing me and my SUV around. I was glad to be home.

Sunday was Father's Day and we spent it with my dad. We went over to his house and had a cookout. We had steak on the grill. Mmmmm steak! We had a good time and before we left Raven and Michael got to go for a ride on grandpa's motorcycle around the trailer park. They had a great time, they love the motorcycle! When we got home...we crashed! It was a busy and fun weekend. Have a great week!! Oh, here are some pictures from our weekend.
