Already June...can you believe it? 9 more days and Taylor and Colton leave for Utah to spend 42 uninterrupted days with their dad. Boo!!! This time though they get to take a friend for a week which is really cool for them. They have this whole other life in Utah that no one is apart of from Texas, now they get to mesh the two together a little. I am dreading them leaving, Kamdyn is going to be so lost without them, right now she is so stuck on Taylor. She sleeps with her, is in her room 24/7 and if Taylor is not home...Kamdyn asks constantly when her Sissy is going to be home. She must know that something is about to happen.
The kiddos have been swimming like fish this summer so far. You should see their tans...even Kam has one. Now I am going to have to get out in the pool with her when the kids leave so she will have someone to swim with...yuck! I don't like swimming!!!
**Kamdyn Post**
Saturday night I got a text that they were bringing a soldier's body home who had been killed in Afghanistan and they would be coming through Lindale on their way to Quitman. They requested that everyone come out and honor the soldier's sacrifice by lining the road with flags. The kids and I went on out. We met up with my FIL and BIL who were also out there. We sat out there for 25 minutes and it started really filling up...there were lots of vets around, elderly men and women. So for some reason (not really sure what she was looking at, talking about) Kamdyn just busts out with "Holy Sh!t" very loudly. I was so embarrassed and Colton starts screaming laughing. It was awful.
On to Colton..other than the inappropriate laughing incident I am so proud of that kid! He had over 800 A/R points in school for 5th grade. The most in his whole grade! He loves to read so much that I have to take the books away from him at night so he will go to sleep. How lucky am I???
Taylor...well she is in that teenage drama/emotional age that is probably going to be the death of me. Usually she is ok but man she and I have some major clashes sometimes. It is weird, she is as tall as me and I feel like I am fussing at a grown woman. I will be so glad when her hormones even out just a little and we can get back to where we were. She is such an amazing person I love being her friend. I know I have to be her mom too but I just enjoy hanging out with her. It is the most awesome thing...
So that is all for now, we are going to six flags tomorrow..hope we don't melt or die of heat stroke. :)
