please pray
Please pray for my dad, who is dealing with cancer right now. We were able to spend some time with him last week, and it was wonderful to give hugs and be with him. Carolyn is doing a lot to take care of him, and I know she could use your prayers also. Life can be hard, but God is so good, and so faithful and we praise him for a wonderful visit with them!

Back to School
Well, the kids are back in school. Can you believe summer is gone? and where did the wonderful days of sleeping in, and staying up late go? Most kids hate going back to school, but ours love it, they love learning, routine, friends and their school. Sometimes I am surprised at how excited they get to go back, but it is usually like that every year. They have wonderful teachers this year, which really does make or break the year in so many ways. These teachers are the ones that are rare, the ones you remember when you are 50, and they make lasting impressions on your life. The twins have been waiting for this year for a long time, just to be with their teacher. He is a wonderful man. Alex has the same teacher that the twins had in third and he is excited too. I am picking up my teaching load at the gym. So now that they will be back in class,,,,I am too. I am a little sore this week. Understatement! Although it is great to be back in a routine, the early mornings have taken their toll on them(as you will see in the before and after school photos) Here's to fall! (somehow it never feels like fall when it's 100 degrees)

Back Home
We are back home after a short weekend in SanFrancisco, but home sure feels good after being away sometimes... Redding may not be the up and coming metropolis, or the place where cool things start, but boy do I love the "No traffic", quiet, beautiful place we live.
We did have a fun weekend though, and the kids love going to Pier 39 and eating at Bubba Gumps. We drove through some beatiful areas, and had a great time. That said,,,, home and my bed sounds good.

Lincoln City, Oregon
The kids and I just got back from Lincoln City. We drove up with my sister and her two kids and met my brothers and the Crabtree family. Skim boarding, sand scultpting, beach rugby and soccer games filled our week. How tired you can get "relaxing" ! It has been wonderful to spend so many days at the ocean this summer. It is one of my favorite places to be, reminding me of God's power and also bringing back wonderful memories of my mom. (It was her favorite place too.)
