Camp Days!

Brennan started his summer vacation by going with a friend to Great Wolf Lodge for a night. They enjoyed two days at the waterpark and it was a great kick off to Brennan's summer! 

These guys have been buddies since they
were four years old!  So sweet together!

Kate attended Open Door Tae Kwon Do Camp June 11- 15th from 9:00- 11:30 AM everyday!  This was such a fun camp!  Julie also took her kids, so Kate was happy to hang with her friends!  Julie also brought Kate home for me each day saving me 40 minutes in the car (roundtrip).  Thanks Julie!  We are going to see a "showcase" tomorrow of all the things Kate has learned... and I heard she even gets to break a board!  How fun! 

Kate, Aleah, and Ethan

Kate loved being able to help Aaron
during camp!  He would come in
and ask for Kate!

Julie and the kids (Aaron, Ethan, Jack, and Aleah) came and swam at our pool on Monday.  Brennan had a friend over so there were seven kids altogether- fun summer days!  I went to a friend's going away party that evening.

On Tuesday Kate had PT and was exhausted afterwards!  I spent most of the day organizing the attic and Brennan enjoyed a lazy day! 

Wednesday I had a doctor's appointment with a pulmonary specialist.  I have been out of breath and wheezing for awhile and the regular doctors haven't been able to figure it out.  I've had a chest x-ray, blood work, a week of steroids, and an inhaler- it all helped a little but not enough.  At the doctor's appointment on Wednesday I had a breathing test- kinda cool!  They are treating me with more steroids (oral and an inhaler) for a week and then I have to go back.  According to my breathing test results, though, my doctor doesn't think it's asthma.  He tends to think there is a blockage of some sort.  I'll have a CT scan done on Monday to see if they can see the blockage.  More bills to pay... oh well!  I am very impressed with my doctors so far and look forward to not running out of breath so often! 

Thursday Brennan had a friend over and so we all went fishing when Kate returned from camp.  The boys also went fishing by the tunnel near our house and built a squirrel trap. I love their creativity!  His friend ended up staying until 8:00 PM!

And today we are going to my school so I can get ready for the camp I am teaching next week.  We'll also watch the drama camp play and then go to a friend's house for a pool party get together.  I love summer!!!!!
