A busy week--A look ahead

As we enter a new week for sure one must also look back at the past week.  But looking forward two birthdays are coming.  Jude turns 2 on Thursday, August 18 and Henry turns 8 on Sunday, August 21.  Can't say that this is my favorite picture of Henry with his crazy haircut but then at one time LONG ago grandpa had a double haircut like that so can I complain??
This last week was busy but in terms of history it was quiet.  Meaning that years ago if I would have had a week like this past week I would have thought that was quiet but now----it seemed busy.  We had Travis over for lunch on Wednesday, John krause for dinner on Wednesday, men's group over Wednesday night, a conference all day Thursday, closing ceremonies for camp on Thursday night, conference all day on Friday, camp staff party Friday night, breakfast out with Jerry Wind Saturday morning and Terry's brother and his wife Carol over for dinner last night.  Also yesterday we did some shopping to get a backpack of school supplies for kids who can not afford to buy.  We also did get some work done on the house as little by little some things are coming to completion at 2094!  When will the projects be complete??--perhaps never but then the fun is in the doing and not in the finished product.  As I wrote that I said that may not be totally true.
Today we will be gone all morning to church and to have a friend look at a car we have.  Maybe a stop at Costco too.
We enjoyed 3/4" of rain Friday night and the lawn continues to look green and lush until you walk on it and then you say maybe something needs to be done like sodding or reseeding this fall.  The front lawn never has been nice so while it is rainy and cool it looks OK from afar but as the heat arrives and rain stops it looks like it could us a LOT of help. 
No it is time to shave and dress for the morning.  Here we are almost at the half way point of August, unbelievable.
