Whidbey Island
It's been a while. We're surviving life with a husband/father who lives 4 hrs away and commutes home on days off. It's been challenging, but at least the bills are being paid.
In the meantime, I took the boys to our yearly family camp on Whidbey Island. It was gorgeous 4 out of the 5.5 days. We didn't complain one bit knowing how past years have been so rainy. We had a great time.
Pearly stayed back home to attend volleyball try-outs. She made varsity - yea! But she was sure missed at camp. High school is the time where teens have to learn to weigh tough decisions and she is no stranger to that anymore.
Here are a few of my favorite pics. It was great that Tall Dude could go this year. He was a big help and was so sweet with his younger siblings. I don't know many 20-yr olds who take the time play with their younger siblings. What wonderful memories for these boys.

I've been keeping you in my prayers concerning the job situation. I'm glad you had a good time at camp!
Camp does look like fun. I love the pic of tall dude holding Caboose - too precious! I've been MIA this summer and so I don't know all that is happening with your husband's job but I'll be thinking of you guys.
I love that last picture of you and your boys....but all the pictures are good.
It IS a wonderful thing for your younger boys to have a playful and attentive big brother!
