The Thompson Crew Ode to Summer '08

Oh how we have enjoyed our days this summer
whether in Aledo or Saginaw.
But we must admit it was a HOT one
and we are looking forward to the fall.

We started off quite busy - swim lessons, SONcamp,
VBS, building a house and the move.
But ended a tad bit lazy - video games,
eating late and hitting the snooze.

We have been sleeping later and later,
8:00, 8:30 and even 9:00.
Mommy may have a hard time adjusting when school starts,
but the kids will do just fine.

The bummers were a new clutch for the truck, Mommy being sick
on her b-day, and vandals on our front porch.
The great times were Riley jumping off the diving board, 2-day getaway,
high speed internet, building the deck and finding a new church.

We are looking froward to cooler days
(the last few have been great).
But Victoria and Mommy will miss Riley dearly
when he starts school, being there at 8:00.

So goodbye summer '08,
we will remember you as a hot one filled with new.
We look forward to more new experiences and friendships this fall
and enjoying our Thompson Crew!
