Summer Review, The 1st Half

Summer, can I just dig in my heels and stop the days from whizzing by? This summer has seemed to go particularly fast. Like water running through my fingers. So before this summer is a complete memory, here is what we have been doing:

John joined Little League this year. His Daddy was a complete rock star and got him all signed up, attended all the practices and games, and was all in all a stellar parent, way to go honey! Oh and John was thrilled. Something to call his own. He was over the moon. Well thank goodness Little League doesn't last all summer (like I was afraid that it did) because we had a lot of camping to get in. Still do, we are going again in a couple of weeks. We tried something new this year and went with some actual friends instead of always my family. It was fun! We'll have to do it again next year. In this picture we are riding Wisconsin's Elroy/ Sparta Bike trail. There are old railroad tunnels that are so long that you need a flashlight to get through. More fun than you can shake a stick at. Really, 'cause shaking sticks are pretty fun.

Then there has been swim lessons (the most awesome swim lessons I've ever seen), gardening (that's a whole 'nother pathetic post), vacation bible school (I only got a picture of the younger two in the nursery, it was a busy week!) and lots and lots of motorcycle ridingSummer, feel free to stick around a little bit longer!

Summer flies when you're having fun and it looks like you had yourselves some! What in the world is my daughter doing to your poor son? At least he's smiling, right? Those do look like some awesome swimming lessons!!
