In the last 10 days we have...

Sent Jed and Owen off on their first overnight backpacking trip (below you will note 3 outstanding Dads--do these kids know how lucky they are?)...(Owen could not stop talking about their adventures when he got home)
Felt sorry for Davis who was wounded while climbing down from a kitchen counter during our "art class"...
Talked about food groups with "lunch on a stick" (it takes so little for them to be entertained)...
Witnessed Gracie's artistic talents, once again ON MY WALLS--ugh!
Picked 35 pounds of blueberries
(Thank you Miss Pam! We LOVE your farm!)...
Revisited Gracie's love of animals with the dogs at the blueberry farm and with Penny, the Preschool's guinea pig's, 4 day stay in our home...
Dressed up like princesses...
Witnessed Owen's competitive side during a watermelon eating contest at a church activity...
And FINALLY crossed "Go to 7-11 for a Slurpee" off our Summer Bucket List!

Wow! Lots of fun things to be accounted for. Glad the overnight hike was a success. Gracie is looking so grown up with the pic of she and Kate! : )

You've been busy girl...I wish Ben liked to camp so that my boys could be as lucky as Owen.

Miss those kidlets. Glad your summer had been fun! ( Or at least the majority! :D)

Life at your house just seems like fun, fun, fun! The kids are growing up so fast! I like checking in to see what things are like in "Betty Peanuts" land! :)
