Howdy :)
Well, my goal was to have these pictures reversed, but I am positive that computers do NOT like me and, once again, it has decided to keep putting the pictures in the reverse order from what I want them. I know some of y'all are probably chuckling, rolling your eyes and thinking it is the operator, but ask anyone in my household...computers really do seem to not like me, lol! So, in reverse order through the month here are the snapshots that were snapped of some of Jumping June's busy moments, as it was a bit of a month that kept us jumping from one thing to another...there are moments that are not getting logged due to a lack of snapshots too; like visits from out-of-state friends, birthday fun Kirk had with a friend, some 40th birthday gifts didn't get snapped among other moments...
...Jadon at Quest Leadership through the International ALERT Academy...here are some of the Leadership guys...
...unpacking and getting settled on the day of arrival...

...wow, I can't believe my 40th birthday was this month...I do NOT feel 40, and I am thankful for that! Thank you to all of you who sent a birthday wish via text, email, card, gift, in person, etc...each and every wish was appreciated, loved and enjoyed...
