Summer Fun!

It is SO hard for me to believe that in about 2 1/2 weeks we will be back in school every day!  We are so fortunate to have so much time with our little family during the summer and try to make the most of it!  Here are some of our favorite adventures from this summer:

Our backyard "waterslide"


 Fishing at one of the state parks


 Xavier's 1st Fish


 Reading books from the Bookmobile


The parachute Xavier caught on the 4th of July


 Our cute little backyard visitors

Daddy & Xavier having a water fight with Scott & Maddie


 Meeting Henry

 Playing at various parks


 Riding the train at the zoo in SF


 On the train


 Chasing the ducks at the zoo


 Sydney's birthday party


Riding horsey while wearing the new cowboy hat from Great Uncle Mike & Great Aunt Ginger


 Visiting Summer in Clear Lake

 Mini Golf


 Swimming


 Visiting Aunt Summer
 Visiting the capitol in Des Moines


 Xavier's first Go-Kart ride


 Go-Karts


 On the Lady of the Lake (riverboat) in Clear Lake


 Watching the water while on the riverboat


 Xavier even got to honk the horn on the riverboat

Summertime will be gone in September, but it's still something I'll always remember.  ~Unknown
