Mini Me's

My childhood friend Aimee Cross (Rottinghaus now) was there visiting family and she had her little girl there. We are both always told our daughters look like us. Here are some photos of our mini me's together.

Bible School in Lewis

The last week of July Lewis had their bible school. It was at the right time because we were still unpacking so it was good for Jaxon to get away and be with kids. They had a Bible Bootcamp theme. Jaxon's favorite part was when they made swords. They also made shields, belts, and shoes.

Here is the first day.

It was Monday through Thursday then on Thursday they had a program for the community.

New House

Our new house finally came in Tuesday, July 24! We still need to sell our house in Satanta (fingers crossed) so we ordered a new mobile home. We know somebody in town that owns a empty lot and said we could use it. Small towns are great!

Here is Jaxon riding around with my dad trying to level it out.

So I blocked the rest of it to save myself but after they brought it in we had to wait for it to get set, unload boxes, unpack, skirting, etc... BUT it is all finally over and we are getting in a routine which I'll talk more about in other posts.
