It has been a summer to remember. I had all but James for the month of June. Then In July, I had Amie, Christine, and AnnaBeth for two weeks while Noelle and James stayed with Mom and Dad up North. Then for the rest of the summer Jeremy and Julie rotated the kids so they could spend time with them. Having to stay in an extended stay motel room only allowed them to take one or two at a time. Looking for a place to rent was very discouraging for them, but God is good, they pickedup the kids yesterday and were taking them back to a house! Yes, a real house. You can read all about it on Julie's blog page at: http://julie.marzhillstudios.com We will miss them, but it was time for them and for us. I am not as young as I used to be and with my own post-polio issues, I was stretched. But I would do it again.

At the same time, my mother developed an infection in one of her toes. Being a diabetic, she could have lost her toe, but thanks be to God, we think that threat is over. We are still treating it and she sees the dr. again the end of September.

We did have a wonderful time on our vacation to Michigan. All our kids and g'kids were there for the reunion on my husband's side of the family. We took our camper and set it up at Dick's sister's house where the reunion was held. It was good to rest, and enjoy family. We hired a young lady to take care of mother, which allowed me to enjoy the time away knowing she was in capable hands. The second half of the trip was spend at my sister's lake house. We didn't get to see all my siblings, nieces, and nephew's, but we did get to meet my niece's new husband and enjoyed getting to know Robin. We had dinner with my youngest sister and her daughter and husband. We always enjoy visiting with Matt and Julie.

Anyway, that was my summer
