Last Week of Summer Vacation

This is our last week before we start school again. One of the things I wanted to do this summer was blog more...that did not happen! We had a busy summer and I think I got a lot done. I managed to paint our hallway and guest room...both things I didn't get done LAST summer.

We also went down to Corpus Christi...




And had a HUGE plumbing job done...


The kids went to VBS....


We even snuck in a trip to the zoo...



So, I guess I will have to say good-bye to summer and hello to school on Monday.  I'm spending this week tying up some loose ends and doing some fun stuff to get ready for our Disney cruise in September.  I can't wait for that!!

How was your summer??

Postcard Friendship Friday #85

We just got back from a trip to Corpus Christi.  Here is a postcard I picked up while we were down there.  My husband and I are both from that area, but we had never visited the USS Lexington before this trip.  The card is supposed to say USS LEXINGTON on the top, but for some reason my scanner wouldn't pick it up.  Maybe because it was in white.  I'm not sure, but here is the card...


 The ship is now a floating museum.  We toured almost all of it.  It is a very big ship!
Here are some pictures from the post office on board.  I thought they fit in nicely with this post.
