Double Date with the Ratliffs

We went out on a breakfast date today with our dear friends Craig & Kathy. We've known them for over 16 years and love them dearly. We went on our double date to Grandville Cafe in the new Americana in Glendale, in order to celebrate Chris' birthday. (Though we are closer to Craigs birthday now-Yeah, we get to get together again real soon.)

It was a beautiful day for breakfast on a patio with good friends, strolling around the outdoor garden, shopping, and visiting. We love Craig & Kathy so much and love spending time with them!

My Health

Thank you to all who have continued to check up on me and have been praying. I'm glad to write that I have wonderful news to share with all of you! The Lord has blessed me and I have not been numb in over 4 weeks...today! I am only seeing my chiropractor once a week, instead of 3 times a week. I started working out 3 days a week and as of June 2, I'm up to 5 days a week! (Thank you Julie for your love, encouragment, and singing!!!--I have it on tape!!!) I really believe that with weight loss, regular exercise and seeing my chiro as needed, (...oh yeah,...and if I stop falling down) I can continue to have full feeling in my leg, fingers & neck, Lord willing of course. I will continue to keep you posted with any other changes (if any). So please continue to pray for me and my health!

I love you all! ~~Georg

June, June, June...my busy June!

Well, let me just start out by saying that June is (was) a VERY BUSY month for us here at the Hoglo Home! So, I thought it would jus be easier to post it all at the end of the month, which is what I am attempting to do right now. We started the month with two Birthdays, one 52nd Anniversary, Father's Day, Promotion, a Book Sale, Tuesdys at the Pool, swim lessons, a trip to Magic Mountain and an nice visit from the Worlds Greatest Brother! (He's cute too!) We had a blast just hanging out with family and celebrating the lives that the Lord has blessed us with! I hope you enjoy the slide shows!

PS...My boys & I earned free tickets to Magic Mountain, through a reading program in February this year! They are wonderful readers and I could NOT be prouder of them!

Promotions

June 13th was "Promotions". That is when our kids move from one grade to the next.

Our support group Lighthouse, did a wonderful job. We are very honored and grateful to be a part of such a special group of ladies & families who not only believe in homeschooling but support our endeavor ~ The Lord has richly blessed us!

Celebrating Birthday's & A 52nd Anniversary!

June 6th, we went to the Red Robin to celebrate Chris' birthday 6/4,

my mother in law's birthday6/5, and my in-law's 52 wedding anniversary6/4.

We had a nice time going out to lunch. Those of you who know me know that any meal I don't have to cook is not only appreciated but D E L I C I O U S!

HAPPY 47th BIRTHDAY CHRIS !

We celebrated Chris' birthday today. The boys wrapped up some old toys and an old cell phone (with A LOT of tape) and gave them to Chris for his birthday. I helped them bake his cake and write on it, they did a great job...if I may say so myself.

We took him out to lunch, he got his hair cut where they gave him the special MVP treatment on the house. Then we gave him the rest of his presents. We also celebrated my in-laws 52nd wedding anniversary, so it was a day FULL of celebrations, what joy!

We Love the Zoo!

OK, so I'm a little behind in my posting...
We (Wyatt, Lukas & me) went to the zoo on Thrusday, May 29th with my friend Patti and her 5 kids, Grace, Faith, Victoria, Ethan & Calvin. We had a wonderful time. The weather was perfect and the kids got along great! Wyatt & Grace and Lukas & Faith became the best of friends and all Patti & I could do was laugh! Kids are so funny!
