Summer

Summer finally came in Oregon. It is so beautiful. I enjoy this time of year although I love seasons in all. In California I cant say that I ever experienced true seasons. In Oregon all seasons exist. I really love the fall the leaves change the weather is gorgeous and I love the winter too! I do not mind the cold or the rain. But when it rains it surely pours and does not stop. But I was ready for summer to arrive FO SHO! I love to soak up the sun ,it is wonderful. I know come September I will be ready for the fall. Another reason why God is so good. Because He knows we need change in our lives so he gave us seasons. I know I am rambling on. So enjoy the season of barbecues, picnics, garage sales (did I say garage sales), swimming (my fav), mowing the lawn (did I say that too!) You know all the things that you can enjoy outside. Have a Fabulous summer!

massage

Cameron loves to give massages its so funny because his little hands wrap around your shoulders and he squeezes. He said to me "Mom, do you know what massages do to your bones?" I said no he said they make them soft which makes them feel good. I wish they stayed little. Life is so entertaining with little ones around. I got to go, Ive got to get back to the massage therapist.

Graduation day!

Today is huge! The Big Kindergarten graduation ceremony. Yep thats right I pronounce Cameron Thomas Randall is promoting to first grade! Yippee! It is such a funny time advancing from kindergarten only going a couple days a week. (well thats how they do it here in Oregon) to now everyday all day in first grade. Man the years fly by. It is also a big day for Cayden tomorrow he will be moving forward to middle school (scary). Talk about a scary time this is when you start to lose touch a little bit the independence starts to really kick in you lose the relationship with the teacher because they now have multiple teachers and you really gotta watch the friends thing. The teachers expect them to be responsible which is good but sometimes a challenge also. They now are responsible to write all their homework NO More Packets or homework sheets. I think he will do great! Christian will be a senior next year now when that graduation happens you better turn on youtube you will see me doing some back hand springs for sure. Christian always had a little harder time, He gets by, but he has to try a little harder (another great trait from the mama). Anyways another school year is coming to a close, I look forward to a great summer but I am sure when august comes I will be more than ready to send them back to school. Thanks for reading.

summer

I do not know about anyone else but I cannot wait for summer to arrive. I am looking forward to the boys getting out of school This means not anymore homework for awhile and not waking up at the crack of dawn, or making lunches every morning just good old relaxing fun. We will be taking vacation to see our folks in Cali and disneyland some camping trips. and I look forward to the Change in weather. This has been the longest rainy season in Oregon since we have lived here. It is hard to wake up in the morning when the sky is so dreary. It is funny the sunshine really does put a spring in your step. When the sun comes up I am ready to get on with the day but when it is dreary it is hard to get motivated. So come on sunshine! Just NINE more days of school left! Here is to a happy summer. Thank you for reading my blah blah blah!
