Mercy, I am terrible at this blog thing. Their just isn't enough hours in the day. Things are going well. Summer is coming to an end, and I am broken hearted. Yesterday was actually cool, everyone else in the family feels relieved, I am the only one wishing summer was back.

Yesterday was Dobby's first trip to the park. I'm not sure, but I doubt he'll be going back anytime soon. He isn't the car rider that Winnie is. Winnie can ride all day and be in heaven, Dobbie insists on worrying us to death. He is still about the cutest puppy I have ever seen! I have pictures...the camera is charging. I am going to upload at least one when I finish this post. I took 32 pictures Friday night of Taylor playing sock with him. Yes, 32, isn't that ridiculous? It is hard taking pictures of a speed demon, maybe one or two of them will be super good! :)

Christine got her first progress report Thursday. It looked impressive. It seems math is giving her a run for her money this year. She has fallen off a little. But I am hoping that just means the challenge has been issued. She will step up, she always does. I am so proud of her smarts. She has been invited to take the SAT this winter. It is called a Duke TIP. Duke University offers 7th graders with an average testing score in the upper 95th percentile an opportunity to take it. If she does well, it could open some interesting doors. Never mind scholarships and grants.

Justin, I saw him once or twice last week, I think. The boy is gone more than he is at home. Boo Hoo! I guess this is good preparation for college. I am scared to find out how he is doing in school. That's all I have to say about that boy..Hmph!!

Taylor and Michael both had that ugly stomach bug this weekend. Poor people...Taylor was sick at Grammy's house. Luckily, Sunday she woke up her normal self. It didn't last long. Michael on the other hand. He'll feel better and then worse, better and then worse. We still got the chance t go on a date Sat. that was nice! We went to Osaka's in Anderson. I decided that is where I want to go next month for my birthday.

Let me go see if these batteries are charge enough to send pictures....
