I can't believe the summer is gone and fall is nearly gone now. It was a busy summer as they always seem to be. The Browning's had two really special get togethers. Uncle Jerry and Aunt Karen's 50th wedding anniversary and mission farewell. And Aunt Verla's 90th Birthday. I was able to visit with so much family. It was like a dream. A wonderful dream that I didn't want to end.

Alexis has had her 13th birthday and wow is she different. More mature, funny, into fashion, loving and bit more of a spit fire. Brie had her 7th birthday. She's had a rough year but now she is gaining weight and feeling a bit better. Yippee!! Taya just turned 10 too! They all are getting so big. I can hardly believe my own eyes. I swear they were just little toddlers the other day. But life is great, even with all of it's many challanges. Each step is a great ride. Oh, and the randon Monkey picture....just had to add it. We call Brie our "monkey-kin". And I think that is just the cutest picture of a monkey ever.
Hope everyone is healty and as happy as I am. Even with bad health news and hot summer days and screaming kids.....I wouldn't give any of it back. :)
