Random.......

Hockey practice is officially underway which puts a kink into our summer fun! Between my 2 boys and my friends son Wednesday was our only option to hit the beach and we had to be home by 5:30 to get Kyle to his on time. We went anyways. We left earlier then we normally do and enjoyed the 5 hours we were there. It was a short day for us since we normally stay until 6:30, but we had fun!

Hockey try outs were the end of June. Kyle made the Pee Wee A team and Luke made the Mite A team. Well 2 weeks ago we found out that there wasn't enough players for Mite A, so the team dissolved. Some kids moved up to the next level and some moved down to Mite B. Since this is Luke's first year he obviously moved down. The coach that was going to coach the Mite A team was bummed his team didn't workout, he was so excited to coach Luke. Luke's a fast little skater and very coach able! We were bummed when this happened.

Then yesterday Kyle's coach who we were all very excited to have called G (G is the team manager) and told him he was offered a coach job up in Virgina and it was such a rare opportunity so he was going to take it and he would not be coaching our team! Which now leaves Kyle's team coach less!! We told Kyle last night and he cried! It was very sad! So now we wait to see who will be his coach!

Over the last few weeks Blake has really starting talking! He uses more then one word now and tries to say pretty much anything you ask him too.
Today I was buttering toast and he said "toast mom". I didn't even know he knew the word toast. It is so cute to hear him saying different things.

Britt went this weekend to Lake Havasu with her best friend Brianna. She had a ton of fun! But she learned that her friend was hurt at work, he was on a roof and fell off (2 story) and is now in a medical induced coma with bleeding on the brain). We are praying he is ok! Very sad. Life is so precious and short! She goes tomorrow to register for her senior year! YIKES! SENIOR? Where has the time gone? Makes me sad yet excited for her!

3 weeks ago our dryer was getting black stuff on all of our clothes then started putting holes in them. G figured out that the drum liner had disintegrated and was causing the black markings and the drum to have a gap which the clothes were getting caught in and that's where the holes were coming from. He ordered a new liner and after one week of no dryer it was fixed. The first load I dried i had noticed the dryer had been on for about 3 hours, went and checked and everything was dry but it was still on the same time I had set it too, great now the timer is out! Well I have just been drying like normal but stopping it myself when everything is dry. Friday I put a load of towels in to dry and after about an hour came in to check on them, they were still as wet as they were when I put them in! Are you kidding me, the dryer isn't heating now! G came home and ripped into it and then Saturday morning called a place and talked with them and they all thought it was the coils. So I went and got new ones and Sunday G installed them and nope, nothing, still no heat! So now they are coming out on Wednesday for a service call!! UGH! Good news is that I can use it but it takes about 8 hours to dry a load since it just air! I am so backed up on my laundry.

I have this past weekend post to do with pictures, maybe I will get to it later tonight. Today we are going to a hotel here in CH to hang out by the pool with our friends who moved to WA a year ago, they are here for 2 weeks visiting!
