Oh my, it has been a long time since I posted!!

We are in full summer mode!  Benjamin is working both jobs and is enjoying the morning shift at the sandwich shop and his same evening shifts at the sit down restaurant.  Jacob continues therapy 2x a week.  He has already participated in a basketball camp and has plugged in with summer workouts at the high school.  The schools offered a 'catch up' summer school, so Joseph has been doing that every morning for the last two weeks.  It has been nice because it gets him up and out of the house early.

I have found a good balance with all my commitments.  I have decided to cut my hours back to 20-22 a week so I have time to breathe.  It is hard to work long stretches when the boys are home and I felt like all I was doing was working in between appointments, running kids, etc.  Trying to carve out some me time too.

After living in Montana for 23 years I finally broke down and bought a small window AC unit.  We only have one for our bedroom, because that is the only south facing room and the hottest.  I have tried to keep the set up pretty portable so I can easily remove it when it isn't 90 degrees!  The first day we had it in, it was amazing the difference.  I never really knew how hot things felt until we had the AC on with the door shut.  Walking from the hallway into the bedroom was a huge difference.  The boys actually enjoy hanging out in our bedroom now!!  (It reminds me of the Labor Day weekends we spent in Woodson growing up.  AC units on with doors closed and how great the rooms felt.)

Things have been really busy for JR.  He has occasionally recruited Jacob and Benjamin to help him out.  Bree enjoys going to work too.  She gets lots of running around time!

Really not much else going on!  I finally got a good phone now I just need to remember to take more pictures/videos!
