Happy Day!!!
We got a letter from Clara today!!! Clara is a sweet little girl in Indonesia that we sponsor through Compassion. She wrote it all by herself! This is what she had to say:
"Dearest Papa Mike Bolz,
Greetings! Papa and Mama Bolz, how are you there? Are you fine there? My family and I are fine here, always. The weather is not very nice here. I got fever. That's why I did not go anywhere in this vacation. But I am promoted to the next grade. I am so happy cause I am promoted to grade 1. I hope I can get good marks. From here, I always pray for Papa and Mama Bolz. I hope your family is blessed and has the peace and joy from Lord Jesus. What can I pray for Papa and Mama Bolz? Please pray so I can study well at school. That's all the letter from me for now. God bless."
Isn't she sweet? Go to Compassion and learn how you can sponsor a sweetie like Clara!

Hello Fall, Goodbye Summer...
I'm so excited about this time of year. Its time to start buying Christmas presents and putting together lists. Its time to put out the cider scented candles and put up the decorations. I love it!
I'll leave you with some pics from this summer.

This was the subway map, all in Spanish. A tad confusing...

We took a trip to Branson, Missouri over Labor Day weekend with Mike's family.
With the sisters-in-law in a cave at Silver Dollar City. We climbed down about 50 stories of stairs thinking we would get on a train and ride back up. Since there was a storm we didn't get to ride the train. The walk up wasn't as fun as the walk down...

My nephews came for a visit.

Little update...
As I sit here having my breakfast of plain yogurt with frozen raspberries and a granola bar (trying to be healthy these days and lose some of the weight marriage has put on me), I am going to try and tell you about our last month and a half before work.
Let's start at the beginning of June... Mike was in the pandhandle (4 hours away) for 2 straight weeks working. He then came home for our anniversary weekend. Then we both parted ways, him back to the panhandle and I to lake Tenkiller for a mission trip with the church. When we returned I started a new job at an abstract company here in Enid. We worked 2 days then made our way to Barcelona, Spain. We had a lot of fun and a lot of new experiences. It was a challenging vacation and I think our next one will be a bit more relaxing. While we were there we saw U2. Great concert! Sooo Sooo Sooo many people. Maybe one of these days I can get some pics on here to show you all.
We came home and worked for a week, tried to play catch up on all the things that got behind. We went to Dallas this past weekend in pursuit of a specific car. I fell in love, it was super nice. Great price, great mileage, great features. Turns out that it had been wrecked 2 different times, and the salesman didn't mention that (found it on the carfax). The report wasn't very specific so we decided to wait on the next great one.
That brings us to this week. Mike is a sponsor at Falls Creek (youth church camp), so he will be gone all week.
To say the least we have had a very busy summer and it doesn't look like it is slowing down yet. We have a family reunion at the end of July. Mike's little sister is also supposed to move in around the end of July. We are still trying to get Tucker healthy, he has a staff infection on his skin and the vet told us its hard to get rid of. We have all the supplies to build a privacy fence, just no time to build it.
Hope everyone else is having a great summer!!
