FDOS

First Day of School! Hallelujah!! Three kids out the door... two babies left. "S" is now 2 weeks old, "G" is 5 and in kindergarten, and "V" is 8 and in 3rd grade. Then Karen is now a first grader!

pictures to follow when they'll finally upload.

zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

I'm so tired!! We received 3 foster girls last Tuesday and I've been 'whelmed' since. Not sure if it's Over-whelmed or what. "S" is 1 week old, "G" is 5 yrs, and big sister "V" is 8 yrs. Sweet girls, but the mess that 5 kids can create is, well, overwhelming! I wake up with "S", go to sleep for an hour or so, up with Curtis, sleep an hour or so, then back up with "S" again.

Karen is spending the week with Grandma and Grandpa Steele, so that's one less person to tend to.

It's hot here, too. We have pathetic A/C, so it just puts a dent into the temp in the house, but I'll take what I can get!

Did someone say "nap time"??

Camping at Jubilee Lake

This is our 3rd time camping at Jubilee Lake. Talk about a dirty time!! woowee!! Seven days and my shower and own bed have never felt better.




This is how Curtis took his daily bath. The water got warm enough that it was fun to play in.









I caught the first and biggest fish.




I always take a picture of Paul with his baby while camping.

My girlfriend got baptised during our church service.

See these yucky feet? That's with a 'bath' that morning. My feet are still stained from all the dirt!!

Teefers

It's hard to get a baby to smile big so as to show off his teeth. Here are my attempts:
