It's Almost August!

I cannot believe the summer is flying by so fast.  The first half seemed to drag and the kids were so bored.  The last half we have been so busy that it is hard to imagine we are a month away from school starting.

The girls went to 4H camp with Gma L this year for the first time.  T & I took them over to the west side for camp and then went to a MLB game.  T's Babe Ruth parents couldn't believe we had not seen a game in the new (I know, not so new anymore) stadium so they gave us tickets to a game as a gift.  AT went to stay at a friend's house and we had the weekend to ourselves.  We had great seats and even saw some friends from home!

 This was the view from our seats!

 After the game, we headed home.  We stopped to see some sights we hadn't stopped and seen before.

The boat is finally running again.  Once we got the girls back from camp, we thought we would spend the hottest day of the year (so far) on the river.  The water was like glass and other than AT getting sunscreen in his eyes and being miserable, we had a great time.  Who knew sunscreen could double as hair gel?

Today some good friends stopped by.  These two below have been friends since they were babies.  We have so many pictures of them as little cute babies that it is hard to believe they are now 12!  Can't believe how gorgeous they are growing up to be, (but I do miss their cute little baby faces sometimes).

Enjoy your day!!
