Random Catch Up!

Well, school has begun! I now have 2 in middle school (this starts in 5th grade for South Bend Community Schools) and a Kindergartener! Time has flown this Summer! And here is the recap!

For 8 weeks I was part of a wonderfully fabulous camp called RECESS! It is a summer day camp that our church, Living Stones Church, puts on for the apartment complex that is up the street and them Elemantary school. It was a blast! I worked with children that are going into Kindergarten and First Grade- they were a great bunch of kids! I grew to love every single one of them! We did all kinds of crafts, science projects, played games (favorite of mine was Silent Ball), and played in the water. We even took field trips! Swimming at a local pool, bowling, WNDU Weather Center, and Coveleski Stadium! These were a lot of fun. At the weather station we got to play in front of the Green Screen! Those were a great 8 weeks, even though it was HOT!

Tate is still coaching football, but at a different school. He is movin' on up! He is coaching at Clay High School and working mostly with the Freshman team. However, the head coach also has him calling Special Teams for the Varsity! He is so excited and happy! I am still adjusting to the schedule as he is gone from 6:30 in the morning until 9 at night.

With all the kids in school I have gotten my self a part-time gig. I am still doing child care but out side the home. This should help me with getting the house cleaned up (yeah, right). I have also committed myself to helping out at Ellyn's school one day a week. I am hoping to find a day to help at the middle school too, but need to take it slow.

I am also keeping my self busy with yarn! I completed 2 vests in the last 5 months or so and am now working on a sweater for myself. The vests were the first things that I have ever been paid to make! I was honored and excited to finish them- they turned out really good! Here is a picture of one of the vests.


I am going to try to keep up with this more since every one is at school and I will have just a little time to my self!
