Summer time!!

I am a horrible blogger.....way, way behind!! Here's what's happened since we last "spoke". We've moved to Savannah (www.savannahdfw.com) a master planned community in Aubrey. We love this area and love our house...it's almost twice the size of our house in NRH and it has a front porch, office and media room....things we both needed and wanted. The community has a water park, miles of bike trails and quite a few parks and play areas, including a covered basketball court and lighted tennis courts!! Because we moved in April, the kids attended school here for the last 6 weeks. We weren't sure about moving that late in the school year but it turned out to be a great decision, allowing them to make new friends for the summer.

Since we've moved, Avery has started taking riding lessons. She loves it and loves Montana, the horse she rides. Miss Merry is wonderful and Avery is already trotting around the arena on her own. The barn also has Barrel Races each Tuesday evening and the kids have a great time watching the riders, playing in the tree house and pond on Miss Merry's property and getting really dirty. Weston attended a Sports/Vacation Bible School Camp last week and really enjoyed learning more about basketball and the Bible. We are still searching for a new church in this area and hope to find one soon. He's also joined scouts as a Webelos Scout and we've already had one campout, several pack meetings and an awesome trip to Frisco to look at the moon and Saturn courtesy of a local astronomers club. The campout was designed for the boys to "cross-over" a bridge and move on to the next leg of their journey as a scout. It was hot, hot, hot but the boys had fun and the smores were delicious.
My favorite Webelos scout, eagerly wearing his new uniform to the Tuesday night Barrel Race (he needed to practice wearing it...according to him) Our plans for the summer include a Patriotic Party here at Savannah on June 28th, riding in the Weston parade with Grandma and Papa Via, Golf Camp for Weston, Horse Camp for Avery, and lots of time at the pool in between.
