Summer vacation so far has been strange. Starting on May 24th, Zach went to Colorado for 2 weeks to stay with his friend Todd and Todd's family. He came to Breckenridge for the weekend with us so all 4 kids were together. When we left Colorado Nick stayed behind with his friends Gabriel and Ethan. Nick flew home last Wednesday, and may I add he was by himself and now he thinks that since he has a ticket every time he goes to the airport he can just get on a plane. Ben left last Tuesday with Jim's folks for a trip to Washington, Canada and Oregon and they should be home at the end of this week. Having only 3 kids at home has been strange. Last night Amelia spent the night with Grandma and Grandpa so it was just Zach and Nick at home that was truly wierd.

Zach is still going to summer school--and for those of you that I haven't told--it was his choice. He decided to take Algebra I over the summer so he can take geometry in the fall. Sometimes he has great initiative and other times...well I am still waiting for the trash to be taken out. I did find a school that we are going to try to get him into for the fall. It is called Treasure Valley Math and Science Center, he takes the test on July 7th. If he gets in, he would be bussed from Kuna Middle School in the morning for math and science and then back to KMS in the afternoon for all his other classes. This program starts for 7th graders through 12 graders it is very intense.
