Long time no type!

First of all an apoligee to all of you who have begged me to continue my blog.... that I have been neglecting. I am Sorry... I will try and do better. Now on to all that is going on in our world.

We as a family went to Galveston Island again this year for vacation... it was fabulous. We had a great time. We had mom and Dawn and Evans brother Joe along with us. Though the weather was alittle overcast the beach was still great. Cody turned 13 down there and the boys kidnapped him and took him to Hooters to celebrate. Cody says they have great hot wings.... what is it with hot wings and Hooters?

School lets out here in 4 days. I am not sure I am ready for the summer just yet... however the kids are. I am still working and still loving it. Cody is in baseball right now, nearly every night. He has turned into quite the first baseman. He has band camp early in June. It will be the first time he is away from home by himself... makes me kind of anxious. Abby is her normal cheerful funny self. She has started her summer off riding horses with Pa. I think he will be my little cowgirl. She just seems to have a natural thing for it.

Evan is of coarse about to leave... like next week. Headed back to the middle east. We think about 3 months this time. He has been spending loads of time in Little Rock either for the base inspection or getting ready for this deployment. It is tiresome but he is hanging in there like a trooper.

Me? I am just trying to remain sane through all the chaos right now. Many of you know of the family problems we are having and I ask for your prayers with it.... It will be a long haul to make things better there. Between that, Evan leaving, the kids, my job and everything else I am always on the run lately. It is just crazy sometimes..... but it is nice to be needed I suppose.

I hope that you are all well. i hope to see you soon but if I don't I pray that God watch over you and yours until we get the chance to sit down together once more.

Love Shelly
