I have not fallen off the planet

I have just let life get hectic and have stayed away from the computer. A few highlights:
Brinae completed Seminary for this year and received her scripture mastery!! She went to Girl's Camp and had a good time. She has been spending alot of time with her sisters and going between houses and having sleepovers(she is hardly home anymore),
Josh had a good time at Boy Scout Camp although canoeing in not deep water is NOT fun-he will tell you! They had to keep getting out and carrying the canoes.
I have been extremely busy with work, I did two fo the libraries art camps and whew I am tired. Each was a week long and from 9 to 12 each day. Thank goodness, my job was storyteller and registration and just all around helper. The art center does the program, an awesome program and all the kids had a great time- Sam says"Grammy, art camp is so fun!!!!" -this from the boy that didn't hink he wanted to do it.
Our van died and so now we have a very pretty bright red Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo, I am loving it!
We leave on Sunday to take the kids to Illinois to EFY, then Donnell and I have that week to vacation ourselves. We are staying one night in Chicago(the HIlton-thanks to Priceline!!!!) on the magnificent mile. Then off to Branson for three nights, then back to Bloomington for one night, then pick up the kids and head home. Donnell and I are so excited. We have tickets for the Branson Showboat, we keep looking at everything and trying to narrow it down. I just want to spend time with him. I can't wait!
I have been busy creating and soon I will put stuff on the blog, I have to get a new camera, mine is dead.
I just miss and love ya all!
