It's been a great summer! Busy and fun. This is some of what we've been up to....
 |
| Izzy and Lily had a volleyball camp in the beginning of July at our beach every day for a week. It was great weather and super fun for them. |
 |
| They were even the winners of the daily tshirts on the second day. |
 |
| We've been enjoying summer evenings where the sun stays out until 11 and where the bedtimes don't matter... |
 |
| Our fairy garden is in full bloom... |
 |
| We went to this Oilers tournament where the new players play against each other for fun, I forget what it is called. (Can you tell I am not a hockey fan?) I saw McDavid play for the first time ever and he really IS that good. I may want to watch a game or two this season! |
 |
| We got super good seats, a few rows from the front, and we ended up catching a puck that came over the net. |
 |
| We've had beach days galore! Love it. We've invited friends and family to come with us multiple times |
 |
| Pointing out the carp swimming below |
 |
| This family of ducks was so adorable! |
We did Kids Camp again this summer with my old roommates and other friends. It was another success! Super fun for the kids and fun for the moms to get together.
 |
| This was the rocket day |
 |
| This was my day. I made Bubble Snakes with the kids and did fun relay races with them too. |
 |
| I think Lily's was the longest! |
 |
| The moms had a fun time playing games. |
 |
| Ok, so Izzy maybe feels like she is too old for this Kid Camp business, but wow, what a helper she was! Sam was so shy up on the stage, but Izzy helped him to be part of the plays they put on. She was an excellent leader and babysitter even! |
 |
| Corbin came to stay with us for a week while his parents went to YW Camp. It was perfect timing as it was when we had Kids Camp going on. It was fun to have a boy around for a change! |
 |
| In this moment, he randomly said to me about his Dad, "Being a bishop is a hard life...you HAVE to go to girls camp." Too funny. |
 |
| We loved showing him the sights of Summerside! |
 |
| Izzy and Lily got to take a day and go to K Days with a friend. They had a great time. |
We went down to Calgary for Great Nana's annual reunion. It is always fun to go to Nana and Grandpa's/
 |
| We got to meet Maci's mini me, Baby Beau! |
 |
| "With mirth and laughter, let old wrinkles come." William Shakespeare said that, and when I saw this great pic of Nana it made me think of it! |
 |
| having fun on Garett's new boat out at Lake Newell |
 |
| Baby Coco is the sweetest! |
 |
| All the great grandkids taking turns with the piñatas. |
 |
| These two were completely ZONKED by the end of that day haha |
 |
| Off to church in Calgary |
 |
| Late night ice cream with Scott and Maci |
 |
| Fun times at Lake Mahogony with Garett and Jodi |
Janae, Brayden, Rory, Sue, and Robbie all came up for the Taylor Swift concert! The Imagine Dragons one was good, but this one was SO good! It was more of a show than a concert. It was so fun. Izzy, Brayden and I sat together, and it was so fun to sing along at the top of my lungs with Izzy. We went to Menchie's first, and got a pic with Taylor in the middle...
 |
| So fun to go with these two. |
 |
| Everyone got these light up wrist bands and it made the stadium look so beautiful! |
 |
| The whole crew.. |
 |
| My sisters and I, just missing Maci |
We've had fun bike riding, roller blading, and going to playgrounds.
Izzy went to her first YW Camp. We missed her a lot here, but she had a blast! I am so thankful for the YW program and our awesome leaders who do a fantastic job. She LOVES YW
 |
| This is how I found her an hour after she came home...exhausted and happy! This was after she talked my ear off for an hour telling me all about it... |
 |
| Here's Olivia with the Lego Corbin gave her for her birthday. She did a great job building it. |
Movie at the beach! It was the movie HOME....
Playing some Vball while we wait for the sun to set...
It's been a GREAT summer. The trip to Turtle Lake is on another post, as is Olivia's birthday, and mine! We are excited for school to start now. Another year ahead....it'll be great!
