Its been a while....

since I've posted anything and I don't even know where to begin!!! We had a really busy but fun summer and now school has started. In June we went camping at the Conference with a group from church and had a GREAT time. The kids loved camping so I am sure we will be doing it again next year.


The girls loved playing in the pool. Paige didn't even need me in the water with her the whole time, she was so happy she could touch!




Having fun playing on the beach! The water was so nice and warm that the kids were able to swim a lot. They loved the big waves too!


S'mores, my favorite!

When we got home from camping we went straight to Alena's first birthday party. She really loved her cake.


The last week of June Morgan went to Camp Roger with her friend Emily. They had a great time again this year.


We picked Morgan up from camp and headed straight up to the cottage for the 4th of July weekend. I didn't get many pictures from that weekend.

The girls wanted to be in the parade this year so the plan was to have Morgan ride her bike and Liv and Paige ride on the motorcycle in the the side car. Plans changed and Bryan drove the bike, Liv backed out and I had to ride.


We went to the Fredrick Meijer Gardens with my Cousins who came into town from Georgia. It was super hot but we had a good time.






The last week of July we spent at the cottage for our family vacation. It was a beautiful week and we had a great time.


Morgan learned how to knee board and got up on her first try!!! She was so proud of herself.

We celebrated Morgan's 9th birthday while we were on vacation. We went tubing down the Platte River to Lake Michigan and had ice cream to celebrate.




The first week of August Morgan and Olivia went to a Spring Hill day camp at a local church. The girls abosolutly loved it!



We went to my Aunt Pat's to ride her horses. We have done this for the past 4 summers and the girls love it. We are so happy Aunt Pat is willing to have us over.




This year I got to ride Cody too. The girls were suprised i knew how to ride a horse with out Aunt Pat's help.

I think the last thing we did was go to Binder Park Zoo with Sara, Alena, my mom and Sara's mother-in-law Mary. We were able to feed the giraffes and see all the animal, it was lots of fun.






The girls also did basketball camp, tennis camp, volleyball camp and bunch of other stuff that I probably didn't get pics of. There are a few more things I need to post but this one is long enough so I will work on it later.
