A Very Good Week.

Lori has regained her energy level again.  On Tuesday Lori went to her friend Vicky to get her own hair cut and styled.  She looks great.  Her hair is a little short but she looks great.  This also is good for her self esteem.   Lori put in 20 plus hours this week and feels like a million bucks.  It is amazing how much Lori loves her job.

 Lori is having a school friend of hers (Toni Kennedy) stay the night tonight.  We are then supposed to meet up with Shelly for a lunch at their house tomorrow.  I love seeing Lori with her old friends; it is amazing how much of us we get from our friendships.

 Ashton has been doing great at her job.  She has worked 8 hours a day for the last two weeks.  Today she gets her first paycheck.  I’m going to take a picture of this one.  Ashton has been given one raise and they are talking about giving her another.  Not bad for three weeks of work.  Ashton goes to a ASB camp next week so she is cramming as much time in as she can.  Ashton and I made a trip to the bank this week to set up her own account.  We also ordered checks for her so now she gets to see how far her dime goes.  I know she is pretty comfortable in seeing how far ours goes.

 Tony has been in a football camp all week.  He is doing great.  He grew 1 inch last month so I hope he keeps this up for the next 12 months and he will be the giant he knows he can be.  He has been hitting pretty hard a camp so now he is looking forward to getting in on in the field. 

Both the kids have a break until Aug 18^th when they both start two a day practices (Ashton for Volleyball and Tony for football).  Lori’s brother is also coming down on the 19^th for a week so he can swim in the pool and visit some old friends. 

We are grateful for all our blessings and thank everyone for their thoughts and prayers.

 God Bless.
