Stephan has been at his summer job for 3 weeks now and seems to be getting by just fine. It's hot, hard work but aside from a little burn I think he's managed pretty well. He likes making some decent money, too. Now we'll see how important another overseas trip is to him.

Merrie worked Scout day camp this year. That was a bit much for her this time around. Sydney attended it though he was sort of reluctant at first. He had a decent time though. Then he and I went to Webelos Adventure Camp and had a blast. I'm looking forward to more camping with him.

Samuel is still a terror to his parents. Here's what happens when he can get into a drawer with the inkpad. We both can't wait until preschool starts so we can have a break.
