life in the fast lane

ah, the lazy days of summer...

GONE!!

we're so ready for a long labor day weekend!

busy work/school schedules...

sniffles/allergies making their rounds...

dental & doctor visits...

hot, long carpool lines...

the new normal!

the never ending house repairs

(what a fine lookin repair man)

the homeschooler

said homeschooler's sister

(in one of her rare "keeping herself busy" moments

more than likely plotting her next strategic

"I need attention!" move)

the homeschooler crafting an original

native american mud hut

there's that repairman again

taking up the old floor to prepare for the new tile

(Quinn had shop class that day while his teacher

got some shopping done

worked on lesson plans)

and here's what happens when two sisters

get bored on a rainy afternoon...

busy?

yes

tired?

uh-huh

patient & peaceful all the time?

to borrow Gracie's favorite new phrase...

no way!

happy?

absolutely!

"be joyful always;

pray continually;

give thanks

in all circumstances."

I Thessalonians 5:16
