Joyous July?

Maybe. We've had A LOT going on and I haven't taken time out to blog or do much for myself until this last week. So here is an update:
- I did find the clippers! They were in a box that I had checked a couple of times, but hidden under Matt's soap. The boys promptly got their hair trimmed!
- I have an obsession with sweeping our hardwood floors, probably because it drives me crazy to step on things.
- There are STILL boxes hanging around upstairs that need to be unpacked or stored away.
- There is only 1 wall remaining in the front room to be painted and the bathroom is no longer completely mint green. Note: I'm not close to being done painting, but almost have 2 more rooms done.
- May give up painting until my hubby finishes cutting walls to move vents and remodel.
Some of the things we've been up to:
- Summer reading program at the library
- Smithsonian Folk Life Festival
- Maryland Science Center
- Cleaning up the yard
- Installing Central Air (Thanks to my FIL)
- Visiting with my wonderful Aunt when she came into town for training
- Going to Primary and Relief Society swimming activities
- Running in the sprinkler and spraying each other with water guns in 100 degree weather
- Learning American Sign Language and interpreting for our friends in our "new" ward
I know there are a bunch of things that I've forgotten to mention. Like Jarom is learning to ride a 2 wheeler, play the violin, and read. Courage has pretty much potty trained himself over the last 3 months. He is still a ball of energy and loves to run. Hope got her first tooth last Sunday and is working on more. She can get up on her hands and knees and rock and can army crawl. She is really happy most of the time and is wonderful to have around. And more that I haven't mentioned.
