Time is speeding up

I figure we must be getting more settled down here in Centralia since time is speeding up. It has been over two weeks since I have posted anything on my blog, yet it hardly seems like it. We are getting to know more people, and getting more involved in community and church so life is gradually getting more busy.

We had a very fun Memorial Day weekend, with two families visiting us in Centralia. It is always nice to spend time with old friends. On Saturday, two weeks ago today, Garrett had a very eventful day. It was the grand opening of the city "Skate Park" that he has worked so hard to make happen. There were many happy people there, especially the teen skater dudes. I was proud of my husband for his accomplishments. After the grand opening ceremony, we headed to St. Louis to go to the zoo. We had 7 kids in our group all ages 5 and under. The zoo is a magical place for children, and for grown ups too. It was interesting to watch people of all walks of life enjoying the animals together.
