What's Happening in Howellville?

Well, I figured it was about time to stop in and update you on the wild bunch:)
Well, where do I start?
I guess I'll start with last Friday. On Friday, Anna, Corey, and me met up with Samantha and ate dinner at her place.
On Saturday, things went a little different this year. I'm use to having the whole gang home on the 4th and we always spend the whole day together and then we go to one of the nearby park, but this year things were different. On Saturday morning, the boys (Brent, Jacob, and Jon) spent most of their day at a mud bog with some friends.
The girls (Katie & Ashley) went to the lake with some friends.
That left just Anna, Corey, and me. So we left and went out to eat for lunch and then that evening we met up with Brent, the boys ,and Bailey's family at Helton Highland for the fireworks show. We had a really good time. Well everyone ,but Bailey. She did not like the fireworks at all. She hid her face the whole time. After the show, she came home with us to spend the night:)
On Sunday, we went to church and then we pretty much set around and played with Bailey until it was time to take her home.
These last couple of days have been nothing ,but mostly focusing on school for me...grrr I haven't had that many kids this week,so I've been doubling up as much as I can on my school work. I just want to be done with it. I have been getting a lot of practice in thanks to my friends who have allowed me to photograph their kids.
I've also been trying to get caught up on here with everyone... I'm soooooo behind,as you can tell. My time on the computer has mostly been on and right back off this week.

As for the bloggy awards that I've been sent ...thank you so much everyone. I really appreciate them, but as you can tell I haven't gotten them added. As I said, I'm sooooooooooooo behind.
Life has been keeping me extra busy.
