Wow, so many fun activities this summer!

 I like to divide my posts by occasions/birthdays, etc., but this summer was packed with so many different things, that I wanted to just post them together instead of waiting another month or so to get organized! 



I took the older kids to the fair, which was super fun! We only stayed for a couple hours, but it was just right! Any longer and we would have spent way too much money!!

Right after we moved! Doing our daily devotionals:).  Sadly, we only did this about once the whole summer!

Pat was making the kids laugh one night.  They were so hysterical, I had to take a picture! 




The kids loved playing Flag Football! Pat helped with both teams.

Here's our backyard where we are planning to put lawn.  It kind of looked like a garage sale the first couple weeks after moving!


KATE IS 5!! 
We had fun celebrating Kate with her cousin Emily, whose birthday is August 9th.  Then we go to celebrate again with Grandma Cindy, who shares the same birthday! 


Playing with Kate's new things! 

We went to a water park on her birthday, which was really fun! 





Grace and Will and Pat and I, got her a pool for her birthday! 





We went back to CA at the beginning of August.  It was so fun to meet baby Ryan, then head to the mountains for a few days!












They were so excited to find a heart in the fire! They all made wishes!






One of the bonuses of our new house is that there are blueberries!! 

ANNIE IS TWO!!
 




MT. HOOD! I had been wanting to go to Mt. Hood since I moved up here 10 years ago.  We always drive by it on our way to Sunriver, but never stop! So I was super excited that we were able to stay at Alyssa and Sean's house near Mt. Hood for the night!












Super fort!
