There isn't much to report on out here.  Sydney has been attending summer school for the past two weeks.  She has also been playing coach pitch games on Tuesday and Thursday.

Tansy has been granted permission to play outside without adult supervision.  However, she is still required to have Sydney with her.  She loves her new freedom.

Zack is talking better and better.  It is still challenging to understand him sometimes, but there are days that his vocabulary really surprises me.

Tyler is the King of No.  I have never had a kid on a no streak like him.  He says no to everything.  He has this awesome scowl to go with it.  Sometimes he walks around just saying it to himself.  He's so ornery.

Ben is working like crazy.  Between work, school, and church, he is always busy.  We actually got away for a date last night.  It was really nice.

My allergies dropped down into a chest cold last Tuesday.  Of course, this set off my asthma.  I was doing better yesterday, but still not great.  I had decided not to go to my 5K, but since I had already paid for it and was in desperate need of a good workout, I decided to try it anyway.  I finished in 42:44, which is two minutes slower than last month, but I thought it was pretty good for being sick.

This week we are going to Lake of the Ozarks for a couple of days.  I will try to coax the camera out of hibernation and get some pictures.

Happy Fathers' Day to all you dads!
