August Already (Again)

Hello family!   There is a lot going on these days.  We are all busy as ever and who has time to blog?  I didn't get to all the Europe blogging that I had planned.  I'm still hoping to get some more pictures posted.  I just have to sit down and do it!

We are already on the tail end of summer.  The boys aren't even excited about school yet.  The season seems to have gone so fast.  They have been kept very busy, but haven't had as much time as they'd like playing with their friends.  While we were out of town Pete's buddies were in town, now that we are back they are gone!  Bummer.  Both kids have grown so much over the summer that a their dresser drawers were stuffed with clothes that don't fit.  Shopping with boys isn't all that fun.  Oh well, they will be happy when they have their new stuff. 

Repete has his birthday coming up.  I can't believe my little guy is *8*!!!  It's incredible. 

I'm still working on the Ties That Bind Family Cookbook.  It did get set aside for other projects for a while.  Please send more recipes!  I haven't had a great response and I'd like to see the cook book grow!

I'm jumping into a new adventure with my mother-in-law.  It's all regarding travel guides and kids.  I'm planning a new blog about that subject and I'm looking for suggestions.  Anyone have any tips, games, favorite places, etc. for travelling with kids? 

Enjoy the rest of summer!
