School is almost over...Summer begins

The kids are almost done with school this year. One more day, really only 2 hours of school left. That means the whole summer is available for fun and adventure. The kids and I cleaned the bus Saturday, but since I still have one day left to drive, it will get dirty again. I'll just have to spray it down and hope for the best. After driving the final route, I have to drive the bus back to Connell instead of Basin City. There it will be stored for the summer till it's needed again in September. After all the final cleaning and paper work is done, we will be gathering at Melanie Rankin's place for a BBQ. It will also be Peter and I's 13th anniversary. WOW!!! 5 kids and married for 13 years to the same man. That doesn't happen very often now adays. Lucky for the both of us, we are still madly in love with each other.

The ward trek starts this week as well. It will be a testimony growing experience for all of us. We will be spending two nights on the trail, push handcarts, sing song, bear testimony, and share stories about the pioneers. About half of the ward is participating which is incredible for such an event like this. Our handcart will have Bishop Nielson's family, the Walkers and me with the 5 kids. Thank goodness there will be others there to help with the kids. Peter will be taking us to the place and then picking us up on Saturday.

With school ending, the trek, Cub Scout's Day Camp, Scout Camp, 5 birthdays, Alora's baptism, our anniversary, my school starting at the end of June, and a family reunion in August, our summer will be full of fun and adventure.
