Our Summer in Pictures (and a few words of course)

Our summer has been filled with 

everything that summer is supposed to be filled with. 

We've enjoyed trips to a local water park,

where the older two kids

went down a super big water slide, and

nearly gave their mother

a heart attack.

We celebrated the fourth of July

by going to a terrific parade, in this little tiny 

village.

It's one of the oldest parades

in the state of New York.

The kids especially loved the fire men and, of course,

the candy.

We watched a fire works show,

and enjoyed sword fights

with light sabers.

K. and D. both

learned how

to kayak this summer.

They were so proud to be able to do this on their own.

We especially enjoyed a family run.

P. and Baby J. were introduced to the sport of running for 

the first time.

We took a camping trip, in

a tent.

Swam in a lake up north.

Enjoyed nature,

hiking,

and the beauty of the Adirondack mountains.

K. was especially proud to make it to the top

of the mountain.

We hiked the bridle trail of

an old girl scout camp.

No summer is complete without at least one

trip to a local fair.

The kids LOVED the rides, the food, and 

staying out way past their bed time.

I can't believe how fast our summer has flown.

We have packed a ton of fun into two very short months.

I hope your summer was as much fun as ours

has been.
