Busy Week!




I was so busy this week, I have not had any time to even post or visit many blogs all week! We are most excited because The Oldest is coming home for her birthday this weekend...her 18th birthday!! It is a real milestone! She has accomplished so much this year. She graduated high school a year early, just before her 17th birthday. She spent this year away at college, where she maintained a 3.9 average, while working, caring for a kitty cat, maintaining an apartment, and she has a wonderful bf. So we are making our preparations for her birthday, while I'm working and studying, hubby is busy with applications and interviews. All-star practices have started for Boo.





Next week is not looking any more relaxing as summer camp starts for the youngest 3, Tween activities start for Tiger, and The Big Guy starts his summer job as a swim instructor. Guess what I will be doing? Yup, running the kids to all of these activities whilst trying to maintain my jobs and school work. But, this is all good, it is what life is supposed to be in a large family :).
If you think of it, we could sure use some prayers that hubby gets this job on Friday!
So, happy 4th of July to all of my bloggie friends, and I hope to have some books to report on soon...too busy to get much reading done.
