vacation is coming ...

I can't believe that there are 10 days left til the kids and I leave. Dakotah has decided to go with us. His friend is going to take care of Jinx so we don't have to drag him across country with us. We are going to have such a great time! First stop is GA for some time with Don!

I have so much to do in the next week. Appointments, Dani's helping with horse camp everyday, Dakotah's going to Stevo's for the week, finish up 2 college courses and 2 finals, spend time with Mason, and finally pack so we can get on the road. WOW!!! This next week should fly by!

Luster & Kaye vacation

Well it is over :( So sad when fun times come to an end. We had the best time! Jeremy, Tab, Trey, Demi, and Sara came and hung out with us for a week. Don and I also had the week off so we had a great time! We went to Kure Beach where Trey and Demi got pretty burnt. Dakotah caught a fish out of the ocean. It was pretty cool! :) We did so much in such a short time. The vacation ended at our house with a bunch of hair dye! :) Good times with some awesome friends! :) It was sad to see them leave us and head to Gatlinburg for the ending of their vacation but there will be another time soon.

Today

Today is a strange day. Don left yesterday for BNOC, 6 weeks in GA for school. As our family just falls back into a routine it seems weird to me. Its like he never came home 6 months ago and just poofed right back out of our lives. funny the things that become "normal" in our lives.

I am currently at Monkey Joes with DaniKay, Mason, and Lil Kota. They are enjoying themselves. Midgets are getting nice and tired for their naps. :) Love naptime!

Tonight Mason and Lil Kota are both spending the night! They are going to have so much fun together! :)

Later ya'll

Starting to feel alot like summer!

I love summertime! The weather has started to cool down alot this week. No more 100 degree weather. We are down to 90 degrees! Such a relief! :)

I have been taking Dani and Mason to the pool everyday. It is so much fun! I must say I don't think I'll ever have another job where I get to go to the pool everyday! This is my last official week of keeping Mason :( Gonna be a very sad goodbye come July.

Don starts his vacation this Friday! So excited. Jeremy and Tab and clan are coming on Saturday. We are going to have so much fun! :) Don leaves on the 9th of July and heads to GA for 2 months. Not really happy he's leaving but he is only 9 hours away! Would much rather him go somewhere in the US where we can visit instead of Iraq/Afghan. Dani and I are starting to get excited about our vacation together. Dakotah is going to stay with his friend down the street and take care of Jinx.

I have 3 weeks left of summer courses. I'll be so happy when they end. 3 weeks of nothing til fall starts. I will not even think a moment about school for that 3 weeks! :)

Not sure what else is going on. The kids are being teenagers enjoying their summers. Dakotah comes home to eat and shower then heads back out again. Dani has friend after friend spending the night with her. Stay up late ... sleep late ... be bums! :) Love my teens!!!

So Proud of Myself ...

I have an A average in my math class! I got a 99 on my first test and a 102 on the second one! All the rest of my grades in that class are 100. I'm so proud of me!!!!
