The summer has been a busy time here at the Jones abode. Vacation Bible Schools, our trip to South Carolina, and daily activities planned by Deborah has kept everyone pretty busy. I've been keeping busy with building websites, looking for a job, and an occassional job here and there. To save money, I've also done a few car repairs, like replacing the brakes on the van. That's quite a big step for "Mr. White Collar".
The boys are having a busy time right now too. School started two weeks ago, and the "teacher" has very high expectations for what they need to accomplish. They are also busy with Royal Rangers and earing merits for their advancements. Caleb was recently appointed to Senior Patrol Scout, the highest rank for a Ranger in his class. Joey was also voted to be the Patrol Scout for his group. Both of them also recently earned their "Gold Falcon" award (which is one-third of the way to the top advancement of "Gold Eagle").
The boys are also in the middle of their soccer seasons. Joey and Caleb's team is the "Green Machine" and Sean Gregory is with the "Red Strikers". They play 10 games during the season, which runs through the first week of October. I've added scoreboards on the left side to show how their teams are doing. So far, Joey & Caleb's team is undefeated (YEAH!)
The girls are staying busy as well. Mom is also keeping them busy with school. Ryleigh started Kindergarten this year, and is enjoying finally getting to be involved during school activities. Both girls are involved with Missionettes at church. We recently found out that Jeannah was "promoted" to Major in her group. She has been a Lieutenant in her group for some time, apparently, although she never told us a thing (Jeannah talks constantly, but apparently not about the important stuff).
