First Day of School
Everyone started back to school today. Kayla is in 11th grade, Kylie is in 7th, Keaton is in 5th, Karli is in Kindergraten, and Kacee is in preschool for auditory intervention. Kenzie will be going to Mother's Day Out in a few weeks. Here are some pictures of Karli and Kacee before school this morning.

Keaton - Fencing Class
Our home school group is starting a fencing class. Keaton went this morning and tried it out. He enjoyed it very much. The pictures were taken with a cell phone camera so the quality is not that great.

Kylie - Surgery
Kylie had out-patient surgery today. We have been concerned for a couple of weeks because she has been breathing loudly and sounds like her nose is stuffy. We took her to the doctor and found out that her right nasal passage and sinus cavity is blocked by a polyp. Today's surgery removed the polyp. Here are some pictures of her before she was wheeled into the operating room and one gross one of the polyp after the removal. (It was huge - about the size of your index finger.)

July...
July has been a busy month. Kayla finally got to go to Camp Electric. The 3 littles went to a birthday party. Kenzie is continuing with her swim lessons and has been invited to participate in an elite swim club. Kylie and Keaton went to nature camp. Everyone went to our church's VBS.
We also have had 3 Chinese students (Nancy, Helen, and Cindy) staying with us for almost 3 weeks. They are part of our church's program where 100 students from Sichuan Province come to the US for over a month. They spend several weeks with our church learning about religion, American culture, English and a bunch of other cool things.
We have been busy entertaining our new friends. We have taken them to the movies, Kemah Boardwalk, a Dude ranch, the mall, swimming, and out to eat several times.
The next few weeks will be busy too. We are gearing up for school which begins on August 22. Kylie has band camp and Keaton will go to church camp the week of August 7. We have school orientations, and Kayla will get her class ring.
We also received new photos of Kari and well as updated information and a short letter. We hope to travel before the end of the year.
