Ipsos i-Say

The best thing about this summer was getting rid of my neck and shoulder pain. I was in an accident and needed to have 4 vertebrae fused in my neck. The surgery in June went well and now I feel great!

My granddaughter home for a visit from Iraq...#1. Camping trip with tents and sleeping bags with family in Wisconsin....#2

We haven't been able to take a vacation in so many years due to my husbands cancer. Well, he still has the cancer but we took a little vacation this year. We went to San Diego and spent some time on the beach and saw a few sights, it was a great thing to do.

Turning 49 and taking a Whitewater paddling vacation - class 3- class 6 - 4 days of rivers in NC and TN and being very thankful I could do it sucessfully when 5 yrs ago - I had the highest Asthmia classification and could not leave the house - due to ot being able to breathe - discovered it was the result of a severe dairy allergy --- this trip make me realise God gave me my life back....... way too cool.

My friend took me and my kids to SeaWorld since my husband lost his job. It was the first time my kids and I had been there and they loved it. I got to meet a friend there who I'd talked with online for years but never met in person before. That was awesome.

Going to the beach with the kids, it was great.

Getting together with family members over Labor Day Weekend. Children, grandchildren etc sort of our little family reunion. Loved every day of it!!!

Took my kids camping for the first time. I grew up camping in the Blue Ridge with my family, and this time I took my own family. The kids loved it and keep asking when we are going again.

The highlight of my summer was having my Grandchildren visit for a week from Washington, D.C. I hadn't seen them for three years. It was marvelous. It was great to see how much they had grown, but sad to see how much I had missed in three years.

The highlight was our annual family reunion. We still have 2 uncles (age 90 and 87) and 1 aunt (age 85) living and able to come for the festivities. We're so blessed to have them with us, to share memories of our grandparents and life in the early 1900s.

My husband getting called back to work after being laid off more than 34 weeks in the past 12 months and then not getting laid off again after only a month back at work in order to make way for a foreman from another job who's had steady work; my husband would have been sent home but for the fact the steadily working foreman refused to take the job if they weren't going to pay him foreman's scale.

Went on vacation went to all the western state's an in the middle of it all made a surprise visit to my neice in Roswell NM, that made my summer she was so happy to see family that when we had to leave we all cried it was good.

The highlight of my summer was buying a house. We moved in during the summer.

grilling eatting corn on the cob and fresh homegrown tomats

I had my 4 yr old grandson visit me for a week in June. We had a wonderful time w/all the family.

State Fair - I look forward to it every year. Each year we take one of the grandchildren... so much fun!!!!

Going to California to see my daughter, son-inlaw and grandchildren.

My wife became pregnant late spring. And we recently found out the sex of the baby. I'm extremely excited and cant wait.

Husband took me to my first medievial faire as a surprise gift for my Birthday. We had never been to one and we enjoyed it and plan to go to another one next year.

The highlight was a Quilt Shop Hop in Arkansas. Three of us went to 11 different stores, spent the night in Mt. View in a cabin with a tin roof and there was a rain storm. Really something hearing the rain plus think there was some hail even. Lots of car riding but was fun.

the family getting together at my sister new home she move back home and that is great

The highlight of my summer was taking off to visit my sister and making our own family reunion by going to visit relatives we rarely see. There aren't too many of our family left, which seems to heighten our awareness of a need for family. We visited aunts, uncles and cousins. Learned things about family history we didn't know before, found out our father had an uncle we didn't know existed and even though they are passed on, we have cousins we didn't know before. Also learned about a skeleton or two in the closet. Planning to do this again next summer. This was all planned only 2 weeks in advance, found great air fares and everything, it just all fell into place.

My highlight was from being homeless to turning my life around and getting back to school for massage therapy and finding real true people to take me in their home even knowing I don't have a job. I a m very grateful for them and everything so far.

Some quality time with my family and some me-time.

There are two parts to my summer highlights, one was me landing a job after almost a year out of work. The second part was picking my 12year old daughter up at the airport after she had been in Michigan visiting my parents for a month.

Two of my married children and their families spent a month with us, (that makes 13 people in all) They live at different ends of the country, so we were all together and had a great time. Lots of work, but lots of memories. Thankfully we have a huge pool which was great entertainment for all!

Taking the kids to Buffalo, NY to visit the Buffalo Zoo, catching a pre-season NFL game with Chicago Bears vs. Buffalo Bills. Riding on the Maid of the Mist to get a close up view of Niagara Falls both American and Canadian sides. Being able to watch the kids enjoyment of getting a little wet from the mist!
