Scrap booking my thoughts and some pictures from the summer.

As many of you know from the time June hits each year, our family climbs onto it's nonstop roller coaster of chaos that lasts approximately 7 weeks.  This time period includes the birthday's of each one of us in the immediate George J. Lloyd clan, with the exception of Jane, and also the birthdays of each of our nieces and several of our close friend's and their children.  As if that weren't enough we pepper in our anniversary, Father's Day, and Fourth of July.  Normally that is enough in itself to drive me insane, but this year we tacked on so many extras that my head is still spinning from the enormity of it all. 

This year we added a week-end get away to Naples for our anniversary, a trip to New Jersey to pick up Maddie, and week-end of company with our out of town friends.  It was all wonderful and amazing but also so quickly passing that I am afraid I am going to forget many of the details.  So I decided to start this blog...as a sort of update on the things the Lloyd's do, as well as backtracking through the summer to get some of those memories down.
I was thinking about it this morning and feeling sad that because everything is so busy I don't take the time I should to appreciate the beauty of it all.  I was hoping perhaps blogging about it would cement it more in my mind.  

So my next blog will start at the beginning of the summer and I will work my way forward.  Anyone who is interested can read along with our adventures!
