I know it has been FOREVER since I last updated!!!

Well it has been 3 weeks or more since I last gave you an update! I have been busy and I have know idea where my camera is! I have pictures on there that I want to share with you, but I can't find the darn thing!
****
We have been busy little bee's lately. Jory and I are winding down our summer.Jory is still working a ton and we have both been going down to the lake at least every other weekend. We just got back from a wonderful weekend at the lake. We are so glad that we have friends that have a place that they are willing to share with us at the lake. Christian has become a fish! I guess he is taking after his last name! He really has no fear when it comes to water. He loves jumping off the back of the boat into the water! Funny story...We were parked in a cove on the boat the other day and he was jumping off the back of the boat. Brandon was swimming up to the boat on a raft to get out and he was about to climb up the ladder when Christian was going to jump off into my arms when at last minute he turned and jumped over Brandon onto the raft that Brandon was just on! I was on the other side! It was so funny! Fearless this kid is! We love going to the lake and I hope that we will be able to do this as a family as long as possible!
****
I have also been busy...I have been watching my nephew a few days a week until he turns 2 at the end of next week. Chase and Christian are 11 days apart and they love playing together. Chase is a little bigger than Christian, but Christian is on his own turf and he turns out to bully Chase more that the other way around! They play pretty well together most of the time. They tend to act like brothers, because they see each other alot.
****
We are planing on staying home this coming weekend. Chase's Birthday party is on Saturday night and I am having my best friend and her new boyfriend over for dinner I hope on Friday night. I can't wait to meet him. He sounds like a really neat guy and it sounds like he is head over heals for her, and vice versa! My Mom has already meet him. They ran into each other at the Irish Fest this last weekend. I am so jealous!!
****
Choir stars up tomorrow. I know my Mom has been really busy getting stuff ready for it to go smoothly! I just love those kids! I will miss the kiddos that graduated out of the program this last year! They were a really neat group of teens. I guess they are not "kids" anymore...they are teens! AHHH They grow up so fast!
****
In two weeks, Mom and I are going to go to North Carolina to see my Grandpa. He has not seen Christian since he was really small. I know that he is really excited to see him! It will be Christian's first plane ride too! That will be interesting! I hope he is good! We will be gone from the 18th-21st! It will be fun!
****
Christian turns 2 on September 25. I am not going to throw him a big party. I am just going to have family and some close friends that are important in his life over. I was going to have some of his church friends over, but I just don't think that he will remember it. So when he turns 3 that might be when I start inviting a few of his friends over for the whole birthday thing! I am planning on making his cake though. I think that I might make a "Cars" cake. He really likes the "Cars" movie and anything to do with cars! So wish me luck with the icing! I hope that it turns out okay! I think that I will have his party on the 27th of September! I can't believe that he is going to be 2!!! Time flies!

Well I hope that my update has filled you in with our lives for the past few weeks. I will try not to wait so long to update next time!

~Ciao~

Yay! An update!!! I know that you have been very busy lately... that's how life is when you're bringing up a little one.

You need to find your camera! I wanna see those pictures!

I'm heading out in a little bit to get some supplies for choir... new folders for music for the kids, temporary nametags, attendance charts... gonna do that running around before I have to be at church for a DD rehearsal tonight. We have to have our lines memorized by tonight... Meg ran lines with me yesterday. I think I'm pretty ready... We'll see! I still can't believe I'm doing the Dinner Drama... WHAT WAS I THINKING??????
