The boat still isn't running well, but it always ends up starting eventually ... this man of mine is so patient and methodical with it. Step by step he has gone through the motor of this boat ... I think he is enjoying the project .... but it would be nice if it just worked ..... we love our little evening rides....
Zalinkos just got home from their big summer trip ... These guys just all really like eachother ... they don't know how lucky they are to have such built in friends!! I am quite envious in many ways!! When they pulled in at like 11 at night, my boys heard their car and went barreling out to maul them! It was adorable.
The boys built a fort on the floor of their bedroom and Mittens always seems to find her way to where they are ....
This boys ... always in the red toque, even in 30 degree weather ..and a book in his hand. He is working his way through the Lord of the Rings that Jenny lent him .... it's a huge book of 3 books combined!
And this is the picture that is burned into my brain when I think of Chris working for this camp. Isaac took the picture while we were sitting on the bench. Here he is working on a pipe issue, you know, a maintenance issue ... everyone is standing around waiting to use the huge slip and slide that he build because Beach Party is about to happen ... but something is wrong with the pipes, so knowing that nothing will happen if he calls on maintenance, or it will take forever, he just buckles down, pouring with sweat as he runs back and forth to all the places to check ....he finally figures out the problem and camp resumes .... but I just am so incredibly proud of this man and his integrity, he doesn't complain, he just serves and serves and serves .... man, am I a lucky gal or what? A husband who inspires me ... not everyone is this lucky to have someone like this in their life.
