Hi Everyone,
One of Jackson and Andy’s favorite summer activities is spending the night in the backyard on the trampoline.  Well, last night Andy deemed the weather nice enough and so all three of my boys took out their blankets, comforters and pillows and headed outside.

This was Gabriel’s first sleep on the trampoline.  Andy said at first he kept looking back and forth at his Dad and Brother with a look on his face that suggested he thought they were out of their minds!  Then after he snuggled in he spent quite a while pointing at and talking to the stars.

I personally doubted that they would make it the whole night, but this morning at 7:00 am I went and checked and they were all snuggled up fast asleep.  When they woke up I made them pancakes in bed - rather on “trampoline”.

So, where were Gracie and I during the night??  Being the sane ones, we snuggled in the big bed, read a few stories and had the house to ourselves without those “stinky boys”!

It did occur to me as Gabriel camped out under the stars that his Hanzhong brothers halfway around the world were also camping out, but they don’t have a warm house to come into.  Many of you have told us you have made donations for the Hanzhong Orphanage.  Thank you so much!
