good gravy, it's been a while. Lots happening and finally slowing down around here. We just got back from all of our FCA summer camps and had a BLAST! Both boys went this year and it was very tiring, but very cool for them to hang out with awesome Christian college athletes...I cannot wait for them to start really looking up to them...what a good feeling that will be!
I had to just write out some highlights from the trips, so that we can always remember.
One funny Brock-ism happened when we were at the aTm camp we stayed in some apartments right by the railroad tracks. Turns out there are like 10 trains a day...the boys were in heaven! One time we had gotten back from running some errands in our car and Brock was OUT...completly asleep...Joe picked him up and he was a sack of potatoes on his shoulder...until he heard the train toot...I have never seen a kid awake and point and get so excited so fast in my life. It was like he was NEVER asleep...Joe and I were cracking up...
Another one was when we were out on the soccer fields with all the kids and Jake and Brock were playing chase off the field with eachother. It was awesome...Jake would have daddy's hat on pull it over his eyes and chase Brock "blind"...until he got to where Brock was standing and he was no longer there, so Jake would lift up the hat and look for his brother, pull the hat back down and run after him again. They were laughing so hard...what a little cheater...
Also on the same trip we got to hang out with some great family friends, the Theibauds who have two girls, a 4.5 year old and a 3 year old. One night at dinner Blaire (the younger) and Jake went off from the table to check something else out...as they walked off Jake grabed Blaire's hand and walked with eachother...hmmm...
Then the next night we went and hung out with some other family friends that live in College Station, the Walls and the Buckner's and Jake walked up to Addison Wall and kissed her on the lips as soon as he saw her. He is such a sweetheart...little Casanova...but something we might need to work on?!?
In Abilene Jake and Brock were both obsessed with the golf cart we got to drive around, Jake would take the steering wheel and drive us in circles...again, he had Joe and I rolling in laughter...
Both camps were so amazing for our family and we are so blessed by FCA. We cannot wait to have the opportunity to raise our boys with these camps in their lives. Jake loves to "sing songs" and say his prayers, and Brock LOVES to dance to the music, which brings a huge smile to my heart!
I am sure so much more than that happened, but my brain is fried...so until later...
