It is hard to believe that the summer is going so fast. We have had some great times this summer. We thought we might capture our favorites list for the summer of '08:

Papa list of favorites include:

• time at Hume Lake with my wife
• Wii moments at the Cobbs
• time with Hopie & Luke while Mama & Abbie were at Wagon Train
• I have broaden my food selections to include gourmet (to Liz's delight)
• time with Rob going to Grace Children's Home to repair vehicles
• later evenings with the girls (Luke's bedtime is pretty set)

Mama has loved having my children home during the summer. Don't let me mislead you, they have had their fightin' days. They aren't fun but nothing prayer, self-control, and a little more sleep doesn't take care of. Then there are the "we are the bestest sisters EVER" ~ man, I love those days. Other favs:
