Toooo busy this week!

I am really wanting to post some pictures of Vermont but this has been the craziest, busiest week ever, I honestly don't have time. I keep thinking I'll get caught up on my sleep from the Vermont trip, jet lag and all but haven't yet. And then there was the new baby... now I am up at Scout Camp at Big Lake, trying to stay behind the scenes and help out a little there. Leaving for Flagstaff later this afternoon and then back tomorrow in time to go back up to Big Lake and be there for the campfire tomorrow night. Linde and I are picking Kyron and Kason up in Kingman, as they've been visiting friends and family in Vegas. Aside from that I just felt the uncontrollable need to snuggle little Kali Jett again!!
Nate, Jen and family will be camping with us at Big Lake starting Thursday morning. We are excited about that. I'm loving being outdoors and on the mountain, making the leave and distance from Vermont a little easier to bear, if that's at all possible. I've had some quiet time and have had the peaceful opportunity to know how blessed I am to have the wonderful people in my life that I love. Nature seems to have a way of bringing out the deep sentiments I guess. It's beautiful on the mountain, the little Scout boys are so dang cute and all over the place. It's fun to watch them and takes me back years when Nate, Dan and Tim were scouters. And yes, I miss that. I'll post Vermont pictures next week and give you all and update on the "other love of my life." (VERMONT) ps saw a deer and fairly new little fawn this morning early.

SUGAR AND SPICE AND EVERYTHING NICE....

And she sure is everything nice!

Luke and Linde welcomed little Miss Kali Jett Woolf on Monday, July 21st. She weighed 5 lbs. 12 oz. and was 17 3/4 " long. She's a compact little bundle and so darling! (proud Grammie?) She's a month early but doing so great and was able to go home the next day to... Kyron, Kason, Kenzi and Kooper! They all are so proud and think she's the most beautiful baby in the world. Kyron and Kason are sure she looks just like their Mom, Kenzi stands guard and has Kali in her arms constantly! Kooper squeals with delight when he sees her, not really sure yet what she's all about but loves to give her kisses. I was thrilled to be there when she was born! I made it with less than 5 minutes to spare, amazing. Steve would be surprised how fast I can make it to Flagstaff when it concerns a new grandbaby! There really is nothing like a new baby!! I always feel that much closer to heaven when I get to witness such a precious miracle. So, thank you Linde and Luke for sharing this little girl with Grammie. I'm so glad she waited for me to return from Vermont! Love you all!
