Well now I am embarassed, I just noticed my last blog and the huge spellcheck I missed-- My husband's name!! Egads!! Sorry babe!
Anyhow-- Just spent the weekend in Detroit (formerly known as Motor City) MI, for the wedding of Darin's cousin. It was beautiful and my children are apparently born to travel on road trips!! YESSS!! They were outstanding and I am so happy because 13.5 hours with cranky babies would have been difficult to say the least!
Anyhow that was my summer vacation, unless I can squeeze a road trip to Darin's other Aunt and Uncle in Beaufort SC, mi ciudad favorita en el mundo!
Ciao for now!
Beth
I would post pics but my new camera is a pain in the techno rear!! and I have dishes to wash!

Dain, Pantry, Macy's
How about that for an eclectic title!!
So Darin is out of town/state this week for an Intensives course for his Master's Degree. He is up at Liberty University, which he delighted in telling me was in a beautiful area of mountains in Virginia. I hope he gets to enjoy some of it when he is not in his 8 hour class days!
Sophia, however, decided that 10 minutes after he left was too long and has now set forth on calling for him every hour. Ava, apparently, is more accustomed except for that it is usually his cop car that is gone for the duration and this time it is his truck, I think it is confusing her.
I have big plans for this week-- I am cleaning out my pantry- there is way too much food in there that is going to waste because we are not and will not ever going to eat it. Darin would just as well throw out vegetables, but alas I say to him as I say to Ava "tough cookies".
Well there it is , my big plan -- yes I know that there is only one item on the list-but it is a pantry-- it is for my own desire for organization that I even want to do this- it is not because it is fun. Fun would be going to Macy's, not my pantry. (I should note that I will be going to Macy's as my reward IF I get this accomplished this week!) I will post my reward IF - I mean when I get it -- so feel free to hound me!!

Night Shift
So today (I mean tonight) begins another round of night shift for Darin. One would think that I would begin to become accustomed to the rotation, but yet once again I am having to break another young baby into why Daddy has to sleep and can't wake up yet. The girls are very understanding, but it is still different for them, and we take about a month or so to become use to the change and then we all all float along and then before you know it, Darin is back on day shift and we are like normal people. I would guess that I get the most stressed out for Darin, who has the hardest job of all-- actually having to retrain his body to sleep a different way, every 4 months, but yet still answer to the demands of normal daily living:church, court, school, K-9 training, being daddy. SO to my D, I love you and appreciate all that you do for me and the girls. You are amazing and wonderful, and I pray that God will continue to bless you in good health, safety and the ability to get everything done that is being asked of you. You are one of the most dedicated people I know and thankyou for being my husband.
I would insert a silly romantic picture of us here, but apparently they do not exist in my computer!
I am working on that however, my goal this year and for life, is for every 5 pictures i take of the girls I get one of Darin and I.
So stay tuned, if you want to!
Love Beth
