A long overdue update

Well, it has been quite a summer and thankfully it isn't quite over yet. Summer 2010 was mostly spent swimming - well, for Laurin anyway. Her summer swim league had meets almost every weekend, culminating in the State Champs at the end of July. It was a great season and she is ready for the Fall/Winter season now. Thankfully, meets are only about onec a month instead of every weekend.
July 12th-17th, we made a quick trip to St. Louis to visit with everyone. It was a wonderful trip, but too short. Yesterday, we got to spend time with the Lium side of the family up at Lake Texoma. It was a wonderful day....even though one of the hottest days of the summer. So thankful to be able to beat the heat in the water.
Up next is a trip to North Dakota for Laurin. She is going along with Grandpa and Grandma for their 50th High School reunion. Should be a fun trip.
Laurin is excited to start her new intermediate school (5th and 6th grade), and is anxiously awaiting the start of school on Aug. 23rd.
