I can't believe the kids are back in school already! We had a lot of fun this summer as usual. This is the first summer in a LONG time that Billy hasn't been working 2 jobs. Because he works a night shift at the hospital, he works 7 straight days and then gets 7 off. It was really nice to spend that time as a family. He did spend 2 of those weeks at Scout Camp and our stake Trek but he loves spending time with the youth of our church and I know he LOVED both of those weeks so even though I missed him, I was happy he got to go. Let's get to the pictures shall we....
JUNE
|
One of the moms in Brooklyn's playgroup put together a little graduation for the girls, it was really cute! |
|
Lucy's Ballet Performance, she really loves to dance and get on stage, and I love to watch her! |
|
Lucy in her Hip Hop number, (that's her doing the fancy move, she was so proud to do this cool move that no one else got to do.) |
|
The first chance we got after the kids got out of school we went camping, this is at Rainbow Falls. There wasn't much to the Falls, but it was still a ton of fun. |
|
I thought this old phone booth was pretty funny out in the middle of the woods. |
|
Frisbee Golf in the dark, not sure I recommend it unless you have a light up frisbee, fortunately we do! |
|
We really like this game called Konexi, you have to stack the letters and make words. |
JULY
|
July brought a little bit of sun so we lathered up the tarp and made a slip and slide. |
|
For Lucy's 10th birthday all she wanted was to go to Moses Lake so we gave her her wish. She went fishing, rode her bike, rode the Jet Ski, swam in the pool and had ice cream cake. |
|
Happy Birthday Baby Girl! I can't believe you're 10! |
|
The new Moses Lake Frisbee Golf Team. There is a bridge that leads from the campground to the state park where they have a real frisbee golf course. Billy took all these kids over to play a round. Luckily he had one other adult with him because the little ones lasted like 5 minutes. |
|
The following weekend, my nephew Max flew up from Texas, by himself, to spend some time with his Washington relatives. I got to pick him up from the airport and then we headed back to Moses Lake for a quick trip. Max was really fun to have around and he was determined to try wakeboarding. |
|
After Moses Lake we headed over to Bremerton to hang our with my parents and my visiting Grandma, she is 93 and still going strong, she loves to play cards and will beat you at anything from poker to pinochle. |
|
Grandma Joyce and a few of her Great-Grandkids |
|
More frisbee? (I'm sensing a theme here) |
|
Lucy modeling the sweater my mom knit her for her birthday. |
|
Noah and Lucy also played baseball this summer. They both enjoyed and said they want to play again. |
|
Billy was the coach for both teams and luckily his good friend Jesse was there to help because most of their games were at the same time. So Billy mostly covered Noah's team and Jesse mostly covered Lucy's team. |
|
Look at that determination, he was pretty good at hitting the ball. |
|
This was the first year of Fastpitch for Lucy. Her hitting really improved over the season. |
|
And she even did quite a bit of pitching. |
