Summer is finally here! And for me I am now in one of my favorite parts of summer, being at YL camp. This summer I am in Colorado & loving it so far. I am working hard, yet being refreshed at the same time.

I took my time driving up to Colorado (Cody will be here as soon as school gets out) & it was a great time in the car to just chill & think about the summer ahead. I stopped in Pampa, Texas the first night & spent the night with a great friend from ACU & his family. The second day I headed to Denver & spend some much needed time with one of my best friends, Missy, & also got to see some cousins. It was great to see folks that I hadn't seen in a while & I love seeing where people live so I can better picture what their lives are like.

Of course I forgot to take any pictures of my drive up, but I did just take a picture of the view from my room at camp. It's amazing I get to look out onto kids sliding into the lake, the mountains, & the blob (it's to the right, it didn't really make it in the picture.

I'll try to post some pictures of camp, but I can't make any promises, I try & stay off the computer as much as I can while at camp!

Cleveland '08!
Last weekend my WHOLE family went to Cleveland to see Luke & Jane & celebrate Mother's Day & my mom's b-day! We all had so much fun together & the only sad part about it all was that it was only a weekend. Hopefully we will all be together again at the beach this summer.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM!!

We tried to go to an Indian's game, but it got rained out :(
The "I" pretzel I got at the Indians game (before the rain out)

Us Texans were a little cold at the game!

On Mother's day we went out to a Brazilian steakhouse, it was amazing

Happy Birthday & Mother's Day MOM - we all love you!!!

Garage Sale & Baseball

We had our annual garage sale for Young Life a few weeks ago & luckily it only rained one out of the three nights we had the sale. It was pretty successful, but really I was just glad to get rid of all the stuff & be done with garage sale until next year. We didn't want to move in all the stuff on Friday night just to move it back out on Saturday morning so we spent the some leaders, kids, & Cody & me spent the night to "guard" all the stuff. We played some movies on the side of the house & hung-out, it was fun.

These pictures don't really do the garage sale justice - we had stuff lined up all around the house!

Some of our friends gave us some of their season tickets for a few of the Ranger games this season. We went to our first one last week & it was so fun. The seats are in a great part of the stadium & I don't think I've ever sat that close at a professional sporting event.

Cody's favorite part of the game - the garlic fries
My favorite part of the game - the dot race!
Go Rangers!
