Summer Fun

We have had a great summer!  We didn't go on any trips (aside church camp for my teens) but have been having fun enjoying the nice weather and no school.  

We built a tree house.  It is a work in progress, but it has a zip line rock wall, swings, and even a slide.
Everyone, Bob especially, has been spending tons of time at the property building the house.  This picture is a couple months old so I'll post an updated one later.  There have been so many days where after Bob got off work he picked up the kids and went to the property for a couple hours until I was able to come after work and bring them home.  Mostly the kids played on the tree house while Bob worked.

The kids went to a few library events including reading dogs.  We also went to the library lunch many times, the kids went to the movies with the library, and did a murder mystery.
I think this picture was the three of us right before they left for FSY.
We went to the park a few times.  We usually played pickleball and then the kids ate blackberries and played on the toys before we went home.


We went to the zoo a couple times.

We ran in a 5k.  Beatrix was the slowest runner out of everyone, but she was so thrilled about her medal.  She thinks she won. 

A trip to the bakery for donuts.
The kids made a lemonade stand.  Both times they made money!  I was surprised anyone stoped.  I'm thankful for generous neighbors.
We made sure to get our free slurpee's on 7/11 day.

I'll try to post more tomorrow!
