We had such a busy June that I hardly realized we had made it into July already. This summer is going way too fast for my liking. I think that means I need to slow down and take some time to enjoy it but just like the heat wave that is clutching the Midwest and East coast right now, there is no end in sight. In June we were treated to several visitors including my sister and nephews and our friends, the Beck's, from Franklin. It was good to see them as well as their two cute kiddos Tyler and Kelsey. In the middle of June, my parents came out for a visit and went on vacation with us. I have to keep up my continuing education credits for my AT certification so this year the National Convention was out in Philadelphia. All 6 of us loaded up and made it a week long vacation. We started out by visiting some family in Greensburg, PA and then traveled to Harrisburg and spent some time in Hershey and Gettysburg. After that we traveled over to Philadelphia so I could attend my conference and take in the historical sights. Overall it was a wonderful trip (with the exception of the stomach flu that invaded the family at the end of the week). Both Noah and Cameron did so well traveling and we all made some wonderful memories.

One of the highlights of Hershey was making our own chocolate bars
Cameron loved the Hershey Story Museum and even became one of Milton Hershey's apprentices

July is not showing any signs of slowing down. This weekend we are traveling down to Washington to celebrate Noah's 1st birthday. He doesn't technically turn 1 until next Thursday but we are celebrating a bit early with the family. Then when we get back, I have a week of vacation bible school. I am teaching kindergarten this year. Yikes!! It is going to be a long week. Then, the next weekend we are traveling to Indy. Combine all that with a late month trip to Michigan and July is already escaping me!! Stay tuned for pics of Noah's birthday celebration...
