A Birthday, Church Camp, & Fishing

Happy Birthday to ME!!
Yesterday was actually my birthday, but we pretty much celebrated all weekend long.  We went to eat Chinese on Friday night and then we went to Little Rock on Saturday, and my parents took us out after church for lunch.  I had a great birthday :)

Our church camp crew with Carlie, Trey, George Strait (white dog), and Remy (black dog)!

This girl was super excited to leave for camp :)
I will miss her so much, but I had to let her go...it's just a part of growing up that I will have to get used to, I guess.

My sista and the kids came to see me today and bring me my birthday present!
The kids enjoyed my cake too :)

Jamie made me these Razorback pillows to go on my (very dirty) Razorback bench!
I love them!

We finished the day up by trying to catch some fish.  We didn't get any, but we had a good time anyway.  I was proudly sportin' my Mama Bear shirt from Amazon.  It fits my personality perfectly!!

I am waiting for Makena to call me and tell me good night as I am typing this post.  I have gotten nothing but happy reports from her and my mother since they left.  She doesn't have much cell service, which is not making me very happy, but as long as I hear from her once or twice a day, I guess I will be okay.  She has also decided that she wants to work at a camp when she is older (don't go rushing things, sister).  I can totally see her doing that.
Carlie, Trey, and I went to the Superintendent's office today to fill out an Intent to Homeschool waiver.  It is very real now and we are excited.  I have worked this past week on getting the kids signed up for some activities so they will be "socialized", which is almost a joke.  They have church and it's not like we are going to be secluded to our house. They will be fine, and I'm not just saying that to reassure myself.  I am saying it because it is true.  Trey will not have a teacher that will refuse to let him leave the room when they clean the class on Fridays (remember his dust mite allergy), Carlie will not have to put up with an impartial teacher who teaches both of her hellion kids ( Makena would be in that class this year too), and I will not have to work where I have to bite my tongue off the majority of the day!  It's a win-win-win!!!

Much Love,
Beth

Three Doses of Happiness

Laundry piled up, dishes in the sink, phone buzzing with many emails, toys all over the house.......sounds like an absolute perfect time to go outside and relax with my kiddos! Today has been a VERY warm day.  It probably would be more enjoyable if we didn't know that it would more than likely storm tonight!  Carlie didn't go to school today because she was up a lot last night with stomach issues.  She never vomited, but she was very nauseated and has had stomach cramps.  She hasn't felt bad all day, just off and one.  We might be going to the doctor tomorrow p.m. because Sunday night I noticed that she has a little bulge above her belly button, I wasn't concerned about it (really) until her stomach started hurting and she said that it hurt to tough.  Maybe it's nothing, but people keep mentioning hernia to me.  Please pray that she feels better soon.  Also tomorrow is the big day....academic advising.  I remember the very first time I was advised (somewhere a
