A Summer in Review-2010

Summer flies by, even as an adult. Here are some of the highlights (and lowlights) from the "R" household over the last 2 1/2 months.

Horseback riding lessons
Friend playdates
New photos
A friend's visit from out of town
Start-up of new Silpada business
Sweet family time in Durango
The smell of 4th of July fireworks
A weekend with friends in Chama at a friend's cabin
Matt Whitling, our houseguest
Teacher training and new family interviews
3 trips to the zoo
1 trip to Explora
1 trip to the Natural History Musuem
2 trips to the Botanical gardens
1 trip to Cliff's, or lovingly renamed in our house "Clifford's"
1 NAUMS conference in Dallas
1 Sweet get-a-way with husband and 4 month old
1 extra movie role in "Let Them Shine"
"Little House in the Big Woods"
"The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane"
3 rooms in the house re-arranged and cleaned out
1 loft repainted
2 bike rides along the Bosque
4 board meetings
Family Education Week
Oak Grove projects-galore
Countless "owies" kissed
Countless forgivenesses extended
Sister-in-law's scary car accident
Outpouring of love and prayers
New mercies every day...

A good reminder, and my prayer today is, "Teach me to number my days that I may gain a heart of wisdom" Psalm 90:12
