Blogging Again!

So I admit that Facebook has become my new blog! After being asked by several non-Facebookers if I had stopped doing the blog I decided to play "catch up." Here goes...we had a fabulous and busy summer. Allen took us along on a "work-trip" the first week of summer to Tampa. Chase, Caroline and I had a great time at the Aquarium, Zoo and musuem. It was fun, but somehow we weren't invited to come on anymore "work-trips?" I spent two weeks finishing up my gifted endorsement and am now officially certified to teach gifted, which is a good thing because that's what a do 2 1/2 days a week! Chase spent some time at "karate camp" and Caroline hit the road to SC and VA with Nana and Papa. Yes, they were brave enough to take a 2 1/2 year old in the car all the way to VA. They had a great visit with the SC family and with Kim("Berly"), Erik and Duffy. I am sure Nana and Papa now know all the words to several Dora and Barney episodes! Allen and I celebrated our 10th anniversary with an AMAZING trip to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. We were very spoiled and I hope I don't have to wait another 10 years to do it again!Chase and Caroline spent the 4th with Memar and Pop pop having lots of fun and lots of fireworks! The whole Skipper, DiBiase, Belknap, Wallace, Moore and some of the Wolfe clan hit the beach in Ft. Walton at the end of July. It was a great week spent with lots of family and friends! August was spent hanging out at Nana and Papas pool with Aunt Berly, meeting friends for playdates, and getting ready to go back to school. August 24th found Chase and mom back at school. Chase is in 1st grade and has the same teachers who "looped" up witht he class from kindergarten. Caroline still spends her days with Nana and Papa and returned to her preschool today with a few tears, but ended the day with smiles. We are gearing up for a busy fall. Chase is playing flag football and baseball(yes, we are insane!) Caroline will return to ballet, let's hope she dances the first class and not the 4th! Seminole football is about to begin and the Skipper's will be heading to Tallahassee! Aunt Berly and Uncle Erik will welcome EJ(Erik Jr.) in November! I hope to keep up with the blog through all this craziness!
