There is a lot going on in the Walters' house these days! Where do we begin? Oh! CLEMSON FOOTBALL in 1 week. Yepper! Tigers, football, seeing family...it is all about to start rollin! I have started back to work already and Hunter has started his "school". Hope doesn't start until Sept. 6th...so she still has a little summer left. Summer has come and gone for me...where did it go?
Highlights of the summer:
lots of swimming in the lake and at pools
Trip to Cades Cove with friends
Baby Jackson being born
Our cousin Brooke's wedding
Hope went to camp (OUR camp) as a camper for the first time
Family trip to the beach with Grandaddy
Craig hired onto the CUFD part time
House issues...oh, that is not a highlight, but let's just say you cannot use our front door and have not been able to since June. We have actually worn a path in the grass in the back yard. I am SO ready to get the foyer fixed! It really does seem it is never ending with an old house! I love the character and what the house represents, but I tell ya-there have been times I wanted to sell and run far far away from it! It seems that every year we have one project done to the house by football season when family arrives. These were very unexpected projects and they are not even done! Ahhh! And I am STILL waiting for carpet in the playroom-just sayin'.
With everything that is going on...as I sit here writing and everyone else in the house snoozing away-both kids, both dogs and Craig....I do love my family and it takes times like this to make my mind slow down and appreciate what I do have. Yes, one day I hope we have the house just how we like it (years to come, I know) and that we do not have to literally live pay check to pay check, but until that day comes, we have each other and that is what family is all about!
Here are some random pics from summer:
