Bittersweet

Hey everyone, things have been so busy lately!! Miss Kaitlyn Krabill (my niece) was visiting us this past weekend and she sure kept me busy! We went shopping, had fun at Adventureland, and attended Adalynn's baptism (Adalynn is Matt's sister Sarah's daughter). Pictures to come soon.

Now I am back at work and getting into my routine again--but looking forward to our Ozarks trip! We leave Saturday morning. It is not too much of a drive (I used to drive it every weekend to visit Matt while I was at Coe!) and then we will be enjoying the sun and the lake! So excited and looking forward to time with family.

Today got some kind of sad news. Two boys, 14 and 15, drowned at the Pella Aquatic Center yesterday. I know this is probably not the most unusual event but for those of you who don't know I worked at the pool for a part time job last summer. I know alot of people who work there still so I just feel terrible for the staff, and of course the family and friends of the boys. I guess we all just need to take this as a reminder-- you can never be too careful, even when your kids are older!! I remember kids a lot younger than these two being allowed to roam the pool without supervision, and it just makes me worry! You never know what can happen, better to be careful and safe! It's truly sad when things like this happen.
