More Summer Fun

Ez is a fan of Grandma's dress up box 


The girls are fans of Uncle Harpers rudimentary fort kit.
We took a drive along Squaw Peak Road down to Hobble Creek last Saturday. It was only made possible because we had a truck. Beautiful drive, even if it did take 3 hours.

Harper gets us out on the lake more often than we normally would go... Which is a really good thing.

I can't even stand being out there on the choppy water seven months pregnant. I'm out for the rest of the year.

This guy loves it though.

Remember The Year of the Yard? We're almost done with our started projects. Yay! We've just got the fence to finish.

Cousins! I love that we can all hang with Grandma Camp.


I'm failing at the Mom Thing still. But every once in a while I'll catch a break... Like when the kids stop fighting and start giggling because they realize how ridiculous the punishment is. I'll take it!


This summer has been slow going for Solstice, which I'm actually very happy with. I can barely keep my act together with normal, day -to -day stuff, so I'm glad I'm not overwhelmed with weddings on top of that.
I have had a bunch of good floral practice opportunities though between one wedding, bridal picture florals, and a funeral.

On the 3rd of July, we went to see The Candy Bomber fly over the Scera Park. It was one of those experiences that you don't realize how awesome it is going to be until you're actually there. Juan and I both didn't really have words to describe how grateful we were to be able to share that experience and history lesson with our kids.


I promised the girls they could have a limeade stand sometime this summer. The perfect day arrived and they got to work juicing and making signs. 


After about an hour and a half the cousins had made $8. Not too bad considering we live on a quiet -ish street. A generous donation of a fiver from one guy probably helped a lot.


At 30 weeks. I was just starting to really feel the pain of pregnancy again. No more kids for us because I just can't handle all of my own complaining.

Every once in a while we'll be spontaneous and go to a splash pad. The summer has been good for us all.
