Summer thoughts...

This last month has went by so fast! I don't hardly know where to start!

Clinicals are going well, I have only two weeks left, then I have a 3 week break! YEA!!!! I spent the last week in Radiation Therapy observing. I never really knew what that was all about... I mean I knew the whole idea of it but not how it worked. It was a great week...i loved every bit of it. But probably not enough to go on for another year and specialize in it! After this last two weeks of clinicals I only have two semesters left. I am starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel! This has been a LONG two or so years and I am ready to NOT be a student! LOL ! I have for the most part finished my online class that I had to take this summer and have been able to really relax and enjoy the last few weeks. I borrowed some books from my mom and started to read again....for pleasure not school! The kids and I have hit a few of the niece and nephews ball games in the last few weeks.... i was unable to make it to see them all play....but I have plenty more in the years to come!

We were able to enjoy the Jasper county fair again this year....pedal tractor pull, 4H animals, ITPA tractor pull and a deep fried candybar! My absolute favorite! LOL Kayla also finished up her swimming lessons that week and passed the 1st level!!!! I had so much fun relaxing by the new pool in Newton during the lessons, that I forgot to take any pictures of her... sorry! We had a family wedding back in June also... Congrats goes out to Phil and Becca! We had a great time just visiting and watching the kids play with their cousins that they don't get to see that often.

We are really exicted for my 3 week break.... My mom and dad will be married for 40 years in August, so my entire immediate family is taking a family vacation to Kentucky Lake August 5-8, in Eddyville. We have 2 townhouses and a party pontoon rented! We can't wait! Mom and Dad are just as excited at the rest of us......what a way to celebrate!

Scott has been working a lot of overtime this summer :) We like that paycheck! He has also been working of some projects on the side....enjoying his man place (shed). We did such a good job insulating the kitchen area that it is so nice and cool (with the help of a small airconditioner unit ) he is able to work in the cool kitchen instead of the heat!

I think I have covered almost everything for this last month.....I think I'll go play with the kids! I hope that you, my readers, are enjoying your summer! Thanks for reading:)
