TIME FLIES

Can't believe school has started again. I started last Tues and Spencer started Monday. My year has been hectic to say the least since I will be out 2 weeks for surgery beginning the 28th. Spencer has done great! New teacher and she is so mellow and a new sitter. My assistant's daughter is getting him off the bus and I pick him up there. She has 2 children and they play great together! My mom is coming to stay 2 weeks with me after surgery to help out with Spencer and the house. I'm very excited but nervous. This is life changing but a change I'm ready for. God has granted me the courage to do this and I will uphold him in this! Here are a few pics of the latest happenings in the Boyce household. Spencer amazed me with his level of thinking and problem solving. He loves the dog, Bubbles and the cat Polly. We aren't doing horseback riding due to the extreme heat but will start back after Labor Day. Spencer will also begin Carolina Miracle League beginning on Sept 6. This is so much fun and he gets lots of exercise!

Have a great day!

A New Beginning

Today I start my pre-surgery diet for my surgery scheduled on Aug 28th. I'm very excited for this and have prayed about it. For the past 7 years since losing our daughter my life has spiraled out of control with me gaining 130 lbs. I want to get back to the active lifestyle I had and be able to share it with Spencer! He is very active, which is good, and I want to be able to keep up! This surgery will give me the tool to take the weight off and help keep it off. By this time next summer we will have completed a very active summer and I'm already making plans. The beach, camping, fishing, hiking, going to the parks, water sports, playing ball, running, taking walks, biking, beginning a golf program. Sound busy, huh.....good that's what I want so we can be a active family!

Spencer is in WV this week spending one last fling with the family before beginning school on Aug 20. It will be good to get back in a routine. Unscheduled time is good, but routine time is better to keep everyone on track!

Here are a few pics from our weekend trip to WV. My Grandmother turned 95 and is very active and bossy! She's something else!

Have a great day!

A New Beginning

Today I start a pre-surgery diet. My surgery is scheduled for Aug 28th. I am very excited and ready to take my life back. 7 years ago things began spiraling out of control and I lost control. I put on approx. 130 lbs in these last years and can no longer do the active things I once did. I do want to get that back so that I may share them with Spencer. He is very active and loves being outside. I want to be able to run, laugh, play ball, swing, bike, hike, take walks, go to the playground, go to the park, fish, camp, play on the beach and all those cool things that at this point I have a hard time doing! I want to share with him fun things and most of all be there for him in the future. I have prayed about this and asked for guidance and I feel God has answered my prayers. My little boy needs a Mommie and I want to be there for him in the future!

He is in WV right now with his Mammaw spending this week giving me time to finish painting our house. He loves it there. It's in the country and cool and he loves getting outside and running around with his cousins. He gets alittle spoiled, but you know, that's ok! I will pick him up on Sat and we will begin to get in our routine for the beginning of school. Summer is gone and it's time for the routine to begin. It's been a fun summer. The beach trip was absolutly the best. Hopefully next year we can do it again and I will be able to really enjoy Spencer on the beach without restrictions!
