Many changes

Macey has a lot going on right now. I finally got her in soccer. She just completed a week long soccer camp, and by today she was doing fantastic...even I was impressed (she was the youngest at the camp).
Last night was meet the teacher night at school. We had such a battle with her to get out the door and walk up to the school. I'm sure she has a lot of anxiety about starting Kindergarten. But by the time we got to the parking lot she was running inside. We expressed our concerns to her new teacher about her being so young, but then we all look over at her and she is introducing herself to several other kids and getting a game of Candy Land going.
Macey is certain we are having a boy. She told me tonight that God knows she is a girl and He wants us to have one of each...me and Vince aren't convinced; we are pretty certain it's another Diva; we find out Tuesday.
Summer is almost over, I hope to take Macey swimming a couple more times. It's so nice to be able to watch from the side. Yesterday she joined in a race with some
13ish year olds in the deep end of the pool; and she held her own. I posted a few pics of her jumping in.

Ken and Claudia's visit

Ken and Claudia came to Texas a couple weekends ago; and we had so much fun with them. I felt like we spent most of the time eating...which of course I love. I think Ken had fun driving my dad's tractor and shooting guns. We were so happy they came to see us, it really meant a lot to all of us! Stephanie and Clay went to New York for the weekend, so Friday night Taylor and Zach spent the night with us. They set up a tent in the living room to sleep in, but Zach was the only one who actually slept in it. The next night Macey and Taylor spent the night with Kristi, and Zach spent the night with Nana (he said he didn't want to be around girls anymore)...I don't blame him. I think everyone was exhausted by the end of the weekend, but we all had fun.
