Sorry I haven't posted much lately. You know how things are supposed to slow down in the summer--yeah that doesn't happen in our house.:) Last week the girls attended VBS at the chapel--they LOVED it!!! We have such a great little community when it comes to things like that.
This week Brendan is doing a Triathlon Training Minicamp. He, of course, is in heaven. Monday they ran--Yesterday they biked--Today they swim and Tomorrow is the last day and they put all 3 together. The actual race isn't until Aug--so he has a bit to continue working out--But the good news is Daddy will be home to see the race!!! Yay!!!
Oh and Brendan finished up his baseball season--They had a winning record--I think they only lost like 4 games out of somewhere around 15 which was pretty good. This league is pretty competitive. Now, Brendan made the tournament team so they are practicing 2 1/2 hours a day 2 times a week for the tournament which is the 17-20th of July. I've heard from people who went last year that it is a pretty intense, all day every day kinda thing. It should be interesting--I might have to get a sitter for the other kids--we will see.
Next week all 3 big ones start swimming lessons--and almost all our "off time" we spend at the pool--so as you can see we never really slow down around here--our focus just changes:)

A friend of mine once described our house as happy chaos. I loved that and have thought of our lives that way ever since--today I am adding our farm to that Happy Chaos.

About Me
- Laurie
- I am an Army wife, SAHM of 4. Our chaos is changing as the husband is in the process of retiring from the Army. We have started a farm to make ourselves self sustaining. We would love to solely feed our family from food we have grown or raised. I will be documenting that transition here. My kids are in Soccer, Wrestling, Taekwondo, Fastpitch Softball, Swimming, Cub Scouts, and Choir--depending on the kid and the season. I'm also recovering from a couple of injuries and getting back to fitness. I continue taking care of my husband, 4 kids, and home. I wouldn't have our lives any other way...happy chaos!

Yeah - I understand busy. Believe it or not, it's easier on post. You have one place to go. here, it takes hours to run errands because believe it or not - you cannot just park the car and get to all your different errands! no, it's true!
at least summer busy is all fun things...nothing wrong with that. Way to go Brenden with the triathalon! Dom recently started trainig for one too. And wonderful news about the end of the deployment being in sight. Its been a long time!
