I can't believe our summer is over! Where did the time go!? We had a great summer and did lots of fun activities. Our family motto is "We work hard and we play hard!" We sure did a lot of that this summer! There was time to work and time to play! We had a great summer schedule and I will be honest I woke up my kids almost every morning to keep with that schedule! We had morning devotional together and studied and memorized The Living Christ. Every morning we also studied a conference talk together. It was a great way to begin our day! Then we got our chores done and went out to find an adventure or called friends over and played hard!! I miss summer already!
One day we went for a bike ride! This is close to our house. It was a pretty tough ride up steep hills but the kids did great.
Caleb loves catching butterflies! He did a lot of this this summer!
The swimming pond belongs to a family in our ward! We went up for a ward Family Night and went swimming. They have slides and a rope swing! Fun times!
One day we went bowling! Carder thought it was so fun to push his ball down the ramp!
Caleb did great bowling! He didn't even use the ramp!
One day we went and visited Grandma Lewis at her school for a faculty & family water slide night!!
The kids had fun going down the blow-up slides and eating dinner with their grandma!
We had fun with some old friends at the Tree House Museum. Carder liked playing dress up!
Even Ty had fun with the dress up! He is acting out the story of the Billy Goats Gruff...he's the BIG billy goat!
Caleb had fun building an arch!
Carder had fun trying to play chess like the big kids!
We had lots of fun times at Mimi and Papa's house! Carder wanted to try on Papa's boots!
Look close and you can see a dinosaur! We had fun at the dinosaur park with our friends!
This place really made an impact on Carder! He loved going here and talks about going back all the time!
This is the 'after' picture of our swimming fun!
We tried fishing at a near by lake, not even a bite!!
But Carder had a blast playing with the worms!
Mara really tried to catch a fish!
We went exploring to new parks! Glad Ty hasn't gotten too big for the park!
We had the perfect day at the park, had a picnic, went on a hike in the stream, and even rolled down the grassy hill!
Carder had a good time playing here!
We went for a hike with friends up by the ski resort! It was a perfect trail for these little legs!
We love going to Liberty Park! We played all day here with our friends! Rode bikes, fed the ducks, had a picnic, played in the water! It was a very fun day!
Carder especially loved being with his cute friend! He kept trying to hold her hand, but she wasn't going to have that!!
The kids loved playing in the water the best! It was nice to cool off!
We escaped the heat one day and got snow cones and went to the park!
I always knew it was a good day and we played hard when all kids fell asleep on the ride home!! Fun fun times this summer! Counting down the days until the next summer vacation!!
