Hey...so this past weekend I have had a couple of people inform me that I do not update my blog enough. I am sorry, Adam and I don't have computer so I have to use my parents computer. The problem is that when we come over here I forget to take time and update. We just got through talking to my nephew on the computer and my sweet sister-in-law told me that I need to update...so now I am taking time to update.
We have had an WONDERFUL summer being a family and getting settled in our house. We have had a BUSY summer as well. After our wedding and moving in to the house we took a trip to New Orleans to celebrate the wedding of my close friend Catherine and Gray. Graci and I were both attendants in the wedding. The wedding was beautiful and we are so thankful that Catherine and Gray asked us to be a part of it. A few weeks after that we had vbs at our church and then Graci took swimming lessons with her cousin Weston. That was such a long week. Everyday Graci would not want to go but would end up having a great time after she went. She had a great teacher (Mrs. Hailey) and really enjoyed getting to spend a whole week with her cousin Weston. They helped each other get through the week and are great swimmers now. At the end of June we celebrated the birth of my niece Micah Reid Benson. She is a beautiful healthy baby with two parents who are adjusting to parenthood and love their daughter very much!! WELCOME TO THE FAMILY REID...Griffin and Graci have been waiting for a new cousin!!!
July 4th was a big holiday for the Benson family especially for Pop and Annie because this was the first time for them to have all of their grandchildren together. The second week of July, Adam and I went with the church youth to RYM (reformed youth ministry) that took place in Laguna Beach, FL. We had a great week learning from some great teachers and getting to know the youth at our church. Our church is blessed with a great group of kids. Now, the summer has come to an end. Adam and I are getting ready to start the school year. I have been working on my classroom and trying not to stress out. Now that I have bored everyone with this essay about our summer...I will now post pictures. We hope everyone else has had a great summer and doing well.
