Chournos Family Blog: Our busy summer

Summer has been busy and fun for our family all at the same time.

We have helped with Youth Conference, went to girls camp, went to Aspen's high Adventure, went camping, had a crazy 4th of July party, had Grandma Jill here to visit to watch the kids while we were at girl's camp, did Rally on the Rocks, and a few Sandhollow days. Have felt like we have only had a few days to be lazy and just hang out!!!

As fast as the summer has gone, we are almost to the end and in 4 weeks school begins again. But before we go back to school we have a few more adventures.

Aspen is headed out to Ohio tomorrow (Sunday). He is planning on driving himself to the Las Vegas airport, and he will be flying out to Ohio to go to the limited edition EFY in kirkland. This is something that he wanted to go and do since this will be his last time before he goes on his mission. As a mother I am nervous, but it is time to let him grow up and become a man. He will do great. He has to begin to be responsible sometime without me holding his hand I guess. I am going to really miss him this next week!!! It's gonna be a long one!!

Football season for Sam and Burk is getting ready to begin, which means Lanse is crazy busy. Not only is he coaching Sam and Burk's team, he is the owner of the little league football here in St. George. It is called SUNYFL (southern Utah Nevada football league). It has been quit the experience buying this league and trying to make it what he wants and make it better, and there are so many things out of our hands and control, that sometimes it feels impossible to make anything better. I am sure he will do great running this league though. Lanse has a great friend and supporter that has been with him every step of the way through this process, he couldn't have done half what he has without this man. (Thank you Gator!!)

Life is always an adventure, we never know day to day what will present itself to Lanse and I, but we are so thankful for what we have and where we are and for our family and friends.
