Wild and Crazy Summer



Most of you know that the Hamilton’s had an eventful summer to say the least. Jared has a skin condition, that he has had over 10 years, in which needed surgical intervention this summer. We prepared ourselves for 1 surgery, which was on June 1st. The first 2 weeks home were pretty good and then things went bad going into the 3rd week. Jared was readmitted to the hospital on June 27th and underwent 3 more surgeries and a 10 day hospital stent.

We are very fortunate to have such wonderful family and friends that have helped us along the way. Helping with the kids, mowing our lawn, keeping our house in order, making meals, talks and your thoughts and prayers were wonderful! We don’t know what we would have done without you all. We appreciate EVERYTHING!

In the middle of all the madness, we found time to step back and enjoy my oldest brother, Aaron, marry his long-time girlfriend, Ashley. It was such an honor for all 4 of us to be in the wedding. I am grateful Jared had the strength to stand up in the wedding and take some family pictures.

As summer is winding down, we took time last week to get away from everything and enjoy some peace and quiet as a family. We rented a cabin in Brown County for 4 days. The kids loved the hot tub, fishing ponds, and campfires! We rented a boat for an afternoon on Lake Monroe. It was so nice to relax together!

It is hard to believe that next week Bryce will enter into Carmel Clay Schools as a kindergartener!!!! We attended parent orientation last night. We are so excited for Bryce this year. He has a great teacher and also has his best friend in his class, this makes 4 years of them together!

I will post pictures as time allows from all of our adventures this summer!
