First, Poppy paid us a visit. And it was very close to his birthday...ish, so we threw him a surprise party. Complete with presents and cake! It was great he stayed with us while attending a conference.
Then Uncle Johnny, Aunt Shana (and really more importantly) Wesley came to visit. It was a busy few days but we managed to squeeze in some fun at the water park and baseball fields! Then they came again at the end of the summer. We lived it up, going to the zoo, a gymnastics place, swimming. Tons of fun, thanks for coming to visit!
Next up was our annual trip to Cincinnati. We had tons of fun swimming, playing, eating Skyline, playing sports, baking cookies, working puzzles, bowling, watching fireworks and even made s'mores! It was a great week and I should write a whole post about it, but you can look at the pictures. But the most fun the kids had was picking blueberries. Who would have thought?
All three kids just had a ball, even Grace was an excellent berry picker. We told her only the bluest berries. She had picked quite a few and I turned around and her bucket was empty. I said Grace what happened to your blueberries. "I ate them all Mommy!" Of course you did, silly Mommy.
Pretty sure as soon as we left Grandma and Poppy had to take a nice long nap! We are a rowdy crowd, but thanks for having us!
10 weeks ago summer started and I was excited about relaxing and not having much of a schedule. Well with 1 dance recital, swimming lessons, karate (yes Julianna has now taken that up as well), 4 weeks of various camps, 1 week in Ohio, 9 concerts, 3 birthday parties, 2 visits from the VB's, Jake spent 4 days with Nana, VBS, 1 visit from Nana & Aunt Carla, many lazy nights watching Looney Tunes with Daddy, and countless hours swimming and playing with our friends...its over. I am happy and sad all at the same time. We had so much fun but, oh my gosh, I am so ready for everyone to be back on schedule! So 1st grade, Pre-K, and 1st year of preschool here we come!
