End of Summer Re-Cap

Well, we are mourning the end of summer, as many are. Minnesota summers are far too short and winters far too long. So, July and August flew by - with many happenings.

In July, Chris went to Moscow, Idaho for a conference on teaching in the classical approach. The school year has started and has been extremely busy, but he is enjoying it.
The first weekend in August, Chris had softball tournaments (and did very well!). We even got to see Matt & Ali Cooper and their boys, who were in town during that time.
And Micah was a good spectator.The second weekend in August was spent in New Orleans for the Shaklee conference. We learned a lot at the conference - and saw a lot in the city. It was a bit of culture shock for us - the city lived up to its reputation, shall we say. But, we ate good food, heard great music, and admired beautiful architecture.We spent the third (and most relaxing) weekend on our annual Seifert family Bayfield trip. We all bunked together in a suite - and Micah kept us on our toes. We read, relaxed on the beach, watched the olympics together, walked, shopped, and played with the baby. He keeps getting cuter every day (I bought him the shirt you see him in below.) Oh, and Mom was on the trip too - she is the one taking the picture.

Chris started classes the last week in August. We spent Labor Day on the beach with the Dragers. AND THEN...Summer was over.

The most exciting news for us, though, is that Chris had his routine CT scans and check-up and was found to still be in remission! We are so grateful.
