Going Through Life One Blog Post at a Time
As we were getting ready to leave the Lake of the Ozarks, we discovered a very dead battery in our truck. Not surprising given that neither Andy or I could remember when it was replaced last. Thanks to some trusty jumper cables, we got the truck started and made it back to Columbia. Andy took a trip to O’Reilly Auto Parts for a new battery and the truck is now starting like a champ.
We spent all day today in the Lake of the Ozarks enjoying the water, great friends, and fun! The view is always beautiful down there.
John had been saying all week that he was not getting in the water. At. All. I *think* that changed about five minutes after Laura jumped in. He even decided the diving board was pretty fun!
Laura had a great time just swimming around. She enjoyed the diving board too. She especially thought going off the diving board with John and Lexie, one of the other kids, was just way cool!
We spent the whole day in the water and this was pretty much what we saw from the kids…
Smiles and fun all day long! Thanks to Greg and Beth Van Hove for the invite! It was a great way to spend one of the last weekends of summer!
This is our view for the weekend! Time for some Lake of the Ozarks fun!
My reward after a long day at work…
We got John’s letter today about his teacher for Unit B. He was so excited to learn that he has Mr. Gramke for homeroom and Ms. Malloy for math. John said to me, “I get to have a boy for a teacher! How cool is that?!?” Enough said. 🙂
Laura has Mrs. Dempsey for her Unit C homeroom. She is quite excited and can’t wait to see which of her friends will also be in her class for the next two years!
John loves brushing Newman! Too bad she really only tolerates Andy brushing her…
