IT'S SUMMER!

The kids are out of school now and they are ready to sleep in and swim all day. I am ready to sleep in as well. Zac will be going to Camp Wiregrass at the end of June so that is exciting for him. Also, this summer he will be taking drum lessons. He will hopefully be joining the band for middle school. When we went to the band fair everyone kept talking to Ali asking her what she wanted to play and Ali would give them her crazy look and I would have to say she is not joining the band its Zac that is joining. They could not get over how old he looked for a 10 year old. Most of the teachers thought he was already in middle school. It was very funny,it made him feel good I think.

Before school was let out there was awards day. I took pictures but they turned out pretty bad, sorry. Zac received his "Diploma" and Ali received an award for A/B honor roll and an award for most hard working student (or something like that). Zac also got up in front of everyone and read scripture from the Bible. I was very proud of him for doing that!

Most of you know I just had another foot surgery. This surgery has me in bed for a while so I can heal. My last surgery did not take so this one the doctor said he is confident about. I am not liking this being in bed with my feet up thing. It is killing me. I feel like every part of my body hurts from just laying around. I am not a lazy person so this is rather hard for me. I will survive though. The kids are doing a great job helping me out when JR is at work. They are also doing a great job keeping the house clean. I think I would go out of my mind knowing the house was a mess and I couldn't do anything about it.

JR has pushed 4 classes so far at OTS. He will be pushing his 5th this summer and hopefully that will be it for him and he can move on to something new. JR will also be having PRK on his eyes at the end of this month. We will be heading to Mississippi for a full week for the surgery. It will be nice to get away from Montgomery but it will also suck in a way since he will be some what blind while we are there. The military is doing his surgery so pray they know what they are doing!

Now to our dogs....Violet is growing more and more everyday. When she stands on her hind legs she is as tall as Ali. She weighs about 45 pounds right now. We are still trying to potty train her but she like to just pee as she walks,no time to stop I guess. She will learn!! Zoey and Delilah are just as crazy as anything. I think they finally like their new sister. Pictures will come once I can walk again.

So hopefully that got you caught up with the Diboll family :) Now time for me to take some pain medicine and try to relax this foot.
