A Return to the Blogging World

Well, last May I didn't have any intentions of giving up on blogging for one half of the year, but it seems as if I have!  Between  a stint as a Youth Conference cook, a trip to Utah, a new calling and 2 natural disasters within an eight-week time period, blogging has fallen way down my to-do list.  In fact, I haven't even read anyone's blogs in the same amount of time! (I hope you are all well!)
My kids keep asking me when I'm going to get back at it because they like to see themselves--so here I go.  I have a lot of catching up to do!
The first week in July I returned from Youth Conference, we sent Chiara off to Utah to play travel softball, and Dennis and Cardon went to Scout Camp for the week.  Here are some highlights:
Cardon's camp was in Narrowsburg, NY, and it was an all LDS camp from troops all over the Northeast, which was a great experience.

 Cardon, Matthew and Vincent with their favorite counselor ever! He is from a Native American tribe--which one escapes me at the moment--and his Indian name is Eeniemeeniedessaweenie!  Oh, my.  The boys loved that!

 When Dennis and Cardon entered the Mess Hall the first night, Dennis's old mission companion, who lives in Schenectady was there with his son!  Small world.  As you can see, it was REALLY rainy for the first 2 days!

 Bud spent a lot of time at the lake fishing and playing.

I LOVE this photo of my 2 favorite boys in the whole world!

Sis had an awesome season playing for the Cache Valley Vengeance.  She really got a lot of experience and made some super cute new friends.

Love this photo!

To be continued...Soon!
