Amazing news

Our summer has been filled with lazy days, fun days, quiet days, and days where the kids can't keep from shouting at one another, (truly a nice way to say screaming, and ripping each others heads off) and well, a book release!
This next half of our summer is truly going to fly by with so many things taking place that I am not sure I will be able to keep up! I know we have many supporters out there who also love us and want to stay posted on our going on's and upcoming events. I will do my best to keep one and all up to date, but please know - we are crazy busy!! These next few weeks have arrived and we are all very excited!!
This week we have 2 candy making classes that Willow and I are teaching. We love to make chocolate candies, and are always complemented on them, so we want to share our love with others. doTerra is also offering BOGO offers this week, so I will be busy with work stuff for sure! We love BOGO week! Sharing yet another passion of ours :)
Next week, we are running our yard sale for 3 more days, the 27-29th of July. We have had NEW items dropped off, and things still being dropped off. Toys, two different bunk beds, dresser, chairs, clothing, housewares, tents, and so much more! Come check it out next week!
On the 31st of July, why not check out Fox Morning Mix around the 9 o'clock hour.... Willow will be on live talking about her book, the PHF, our walk and who knows what else! We are super excited for Willow, while she is super nervous. :)
Also this same week, is the MI PHF WALK event on Saturday, August 5th at Wahlfield Park. Willow and Evan will be there signing copies of their book before the walk starts. There are great family fun games, as well as a beach party theme (so plan to get wet!)
On Saturday, August 12th, I will be taking Jonathan up to Lake Superior State University to tour the college. It is really the only place he is interested in, so I hope it lives up to his dreams. He is looking at a forensics chemistry major there, and it seems they have a great program.
A few days after that, we leave for DC! We will travel as a family there to meet with the PHF and speak with Congressional reps about the importance of raising awareness of Hydrocephalus and how it affects so many, and yet so unknown. We also take a day or two extra as a family vacation, so the kids are looking forward to that as well.
Shortly after our return from that, the kids go back to school! It is crazy to think that they will be going back in only 6 weeks. Willow is most definitely not ready. The other kids have mixed reviews. :)  This year, we have a senior in high school, a freshman, a 7th grader, a 1st grader, and a 4 year old in preschool!! Oh how busy we are. :)
I hope that for many of you who follow our family, support our journeys, and love to stay on top of things - this was all helpful information. For others, maybe not so much. Lol, if anyone has questions about what I have said here, please message me, I will do my best to answer quickly.
From our family to yours, please enjoy your summer!! We are half way through!
