Help Has Arrived!

From June 22nd through June 27th Jason was away with the Youth Group at a youth summer camp in South Carolina. It was about a 4 hour drive for them to get to the camp, which was held at North Greenville College. Because I have my hands full with two little ones, I greatly appreciated Jason's parents' willingness to come and stay with me during Jason's absence. I know how tough it is for me sometimes just during the day with my two sweet children, so I couldn't imagine spending almost an entire week night and day parenting alone. I can't begin to describe how much of a help Jason's parents were to me! I didn't get as many good pictures this time because I was so busy with all that was going on, but I did get a few that I'll share.

We had a really good time together. Ethan loved having people to pay attention to him and play with him while I was tied up taking care of Elaina. Praise God for my wonderful in laws! (I know that is not a phrase you hear very often!)
