48 hours.

Yesiree, we are on our last 48 hours of

freedom vacation.  School begins

with a big shock for our crew on Monday.

We have been talking and praying about

the first day of school for the past couple

of weeks and I do believe that we are 

more excited than we let on.  We are a

group that thrives on routine and schedules.

Staying up until 4:00 or 4:30 morning

is getting pretty insane, as is the

breakfast that lingers until about 1:00 

or 2:00 each afternoon as the guys

stumble jump out of bed with excitement

to greet yet another exciting day of

summer vacation.  Luke and I are

especially excited to finish a Bible

curriculum that takes three years to 

complete . . . we are going to put the

finishing touches on it this year.  The

boys were giving me the lowdown tonight

as to how they will be spending their

last couple of savored days to wind

down summer.  We had talked about the

prospect of winding down, yep . . .

that lasted about six hours.  Enough 

for the boys to shower up and pack 

another backpack . . . 

Summer.we.love.it.
