Summer wrap up, Adi's birthday, back to school!

When I last posted, we were right smack in the middle of summer.  We were having so much fun living up our warm, summer days and we didn't slow down!  We went on a couple camping trips with a lot more pool fun, park dates, water fights, grilling, and ice cream eating in between.  I am going to leave you with a picture dump from the rest of summer.

Mini golf!  Baeo loved it and Adi was bored;-)



Visiting the Tri Cities.  Hanging with Grandpa P.

Summatime!!!

It is definitely summer here in the Pacific Northwest!  We have been so lucky to have countless days of sun and temps in the 80s.  So what have we been up to on our last summer before Braedon will be in school full time?  Lots!!  I have enjoyed this summer so much hanging out with my two little sidekicks:-)  Things we've done that have totally made our summer?

-Preschool graduation!!!  My baby is now a kindergartner.  Sniff, sniff.

-Spent a hot and sunny day at the lake with some friends.  Lots of swimming, splashing, chip eating, and boat riding!

-Visits from the ice cream man that ended with huge smiles and a whole lot of stickiness dripping down our chins and our elbows.

-Park play dates with our awesome friends.

-An awesome 4th of July that included our first block party with awesome neighbors, good food, and lots of fireworks.

-Countless afternoons playing in the kiddie pool, having water fights, and water sliding.

-A family reunion with lots of cousins, sleeping in a tent, S'mores, and more water fights.

-Adi's first wedding where she pretty much stocked the bride in her pretty dress and cried because she didn't catch the bouquet.

-Warm summer nights staying up way past bedtime, riding bikes in the street and playing with neighbor kids.

-BBQ'n on the weekends that always included delicious, sweet corn on the cob.

-Couch naps at 5 in the afternoon because playing all day is just so exhausting.

-Raspberry picking and spending the day at Remlinger Farms.

Things to still look forward to?

-Two more camping trips, one of which is at my all time favorite place...Banks Lake!!!

Now for some pictures.
