We're Back!

Yes, after a two-year hiatus, the Bushaw family blog is back! Thanks to some loyal viewers, I finally got around to updating everyone on what we've been up to. To keep it short and simple, we're recapping our summer of 2023. It was hot, dry, and wonderful. While we didn't travel nearly enough to avoid the relentless Texas heat, we were able to escape to cooler temps a few times. Ella and I traveled to Park City, Utah, for her first lacrosse tournament. Jack spent a week in Iowa with Grandma, Papa, and lots of fish. And the five of us wrapped up the summer with a quick but wonderful trip to Montana. Now we're back in the swing of school, sports, and crazy schedules. I promise I'll update again soon!
