Summer's End

This summer has truly flown by!  It's hard to believe that everyone will be back in school soon.  To be honest, we haven't gotten all of our adventures in this time.  However, we have made the most of every opportunity. We are heading to Meridian next weekend for another cousin visit.  We are all excited about that!  Fall sports are starting soon, and we will once again be in the road.  I'm ready after our summer break. 

Reed has been here for a few days while his sisters were at the Motion Conference.  JS and Jack spent a couple of days with us, and fun was had by all!  I love how they love each other.

Pop and Reed got in a few very productive fishing trips.  They caught several bass in a pond we rarely ever fish in!  Obviously, we are going to have to change that.  They were almost jumping in the boat!

They moved to another pond, and didn’t have quite the same luck, but these pictures are beautiful. 

We had planned a fun day at the water park, but rain made us head in a different direction.  Upsurge for the win! I don't have pictures of the really fun stuff-swimming, building forts, playing police and pirates, and so much more!  

Rainy Day - Fun Day!!

As hard as it is to believe, this sweet girl is headed to Junior High and JV sports!  Look out volleyball, here we come!

Hayes, one of Reed's very best friends, is battling leukemia.  Several of his friends joined together to shave their heads in support.  We are praying for a speedy recovery for Hayes and strength for him and his family.  

I couldn't love this more.  We are very proud of him, as he shows his love and support for his special friend.  

While Reed was getting his head shaved, the girls and I enjoyed a meal at a Japanese steakhouse.

The little ones and I met Jenna and Mattie Jo at the Children's Museum in Meridian.  What a wonderful place!  We had a ball.

Cutest four year old ever cooked us up a great meal!

This six year old is pretty adorable too!!

Last but not least, these cuties enjoyed a little trip to the beach! I have a couple of late season trips coming up, too!  I can't wait to have my toes in the sand.

More to come!
