Summer Fun Part 1

Where has the summer gone?!? It's actually only the middle of August here, but I've noticed some of the trees are already starting to put on their autumn attire. Sigh. I love fall, but I'm just not quite ready for it yet. Especially since my tomatoes have JUST begun to ripen. I hope to enjoy a few more summer time bar-b-q's and yummy summer salads.

We've done some fun stuff this summer. Michelle and I met up with some friends several times for various "field trips" to the museum, swimming pool, or just to get some ice cream. One of the favorites was the museum.
 Why, yes, my daughter is wearing sweat pants. It was a bit rainy and chilly that day, and she has grown almost 2 inches since spring and out grown most of her pants. Definitely going to have to do some shopping before the really cool weather hits.
Does anyone else feel really old when they go into a museum? You know, when you see one of your child hood toys behind a glass display? Sigh again. Life really is moving too fast for me.
We also had several friends over for a 4th of July bar-b-q and fireworks. 
Michelle and I went to our first Summer Camp this year. 
Our silly dog tried to tag along with us. Sorry, Layla, no dogs allowed at this camp. 



Yeah, I think she had a good time. ;o) 

Mike got to go with us to the zoo, and we're planning a trip to the aquarium with him tomorrow. It is his last day off before officially starting as a teacher this year. I'm so proud of him and all the hard work he's done. I know he's going to be an awesome teacher. 

Well, I think I'll wait and post photos of those trips a bit later. Right now I've got to go make some salsa and freeze some beans from the garden. 

Till next time...
God's love and blessings!
