First day of school

Today was our first day of school. Mom had many mixed emotions going on. Today Britton started his sophomore year at Redwood. I can't hardly believe it. I remember yesterday I was crying because I didn't want to leave him for kindergarten. Then, I remember crying dropping him off his first day of seventh grade. Then, I remember very vividly crying after dropping him of his first day of High School. Gosh! what's next?? Graduation? Then, mission? Then, marriage and babies?? Well, on another note, Rebecca started seventh grade today at Green Acres Middle School. This was a whole new experience. Between the both of us, our emotions and nerves were flying everywhere! She was extremely nervous (as well as myself) and had major stomach issues this morning. After many prayers and her dad's blessing, I think she was ok. I've been thinking of them all day today wondering how they've been doing. I can't believe summer is already gone. I have another week before I go back and then it'll be back to work for all of us.


Stake Beehive Girl's Camp

This year was Rebecca's first year going to church girl's camp. This year they did it a little different having it just be the Beehives throughout the stake. They had a lot of fun but missed being "mothered" by the fabulous Laurels! I drove up to Camp Wilderness, our church camp site WAY up in the mountains, to pick up some of the girls at the end of the week. I was told it was a pretty windy road.... well..... they were RIGHT! Thankfully I took a dramemine before I left that morning and then after arriving to the destination (2 hours up!) I decided to take another dramemine!!! Thankfully again, I did not get sick!! I did sleep all afternoon, though. Maybe next time one will be sufficient. Here are some pictures of the week.
