July and August 2014

Well, Emily and I have had a very full and very FUN summer. We have had Grandpa build a new deck in the backyard, put up a new pool, had lots of fun swimming, been to Sunriver two times, picked berries at Nana's house, went to the Fair, had lots of fun playing with friends and cousins, worked to get ready for First Grade, met our new teacher at Back to School night, celebrated Grandpa's birthday, and much more.

Our Family Reunion this year was so much fun! Besides the annual Cribbage tournament, we added a new bit of fun! Minute to Win It games with teams and everything was new this year, and everyone was in agreement that we will do this every summer from now on! SO MUCH laughter and fun was had by all.

The annual day at the river was filled with arts and crafts, playing in the river/boat, playing Fling It, having balsa wood plane races, barbecue yummies, and total joy with family!

Emily had a lot of good times and made so many memories with her cousins Alyssa and Zack, as well as Aunt Pam, Uncle Bruce, Ella, and grandpa and grandma. The only downer was how many mosquito bites the sweet girl came home with. BUMMER!!

I have so many fun pictures to share, be sure to check out all of them. The little darling sure did have a GREAT summer!! Now it's time for First Grade, a brand new school and a brand new school year!
Have a fun school year everyone!
