Summer Days

It was a fun week, but definitely a summer-time week. We have completed another year of Vacation Bible School. One week to go of soccer and three more weeks of T-ball and Baseball. (Though we’ll miss one of those weeks while we are on a family vacation.) And, four of our afternoons this week included swimming at the lake with four other families.
Tonight, Friday, the children are camping out with daddy in the tent. After our VBS program tonight we roasted hot dogs and marshmallows. They are now sleeping, hopefully snuggly, under the stars and I am hanging out writing and watching a Paul Simon tribute on PBS.
In addition to the other activities, I have had the treat of “playing” on the computer and spending time with friends at our local cafe the last two mornings. I did get to start Jane Eyre’s Pride and Prejudice this week. What a fun read! Definitely a style of writing that requires concentration, but one that parallels my natural conversation style. A little wordy, in a fun kind of way. Of course from my own perspective. For me personally, I have been working on being more concise.
The weather has been simply wonderful this week. Though tonight’s forecast was sketchy so hopefully it will hold off for the camp-out.
