End of summer happenings!

I was going through my pictures and realized that there is a lot I didn't blog about this past month! Here are a few of the things we have been doing as summer is coming to an end...

Uncle Mike was cool enough to teach swimming lessons this year. As nervous as they were, they loved every minute of it and were sad to see it come to an end.

Brynn is learning the real technique! Mike truly is amazing. Not many people know how to deal with Brynn and her funny attitudes, but he made lessons so fun!

A final visit to our new local "beaches."

A summer BBQ and carnival at Grandma's apartment!




The birth of Sadie Goldhardt! (cousin)



Daddy Daughter Bowling date! The girls couldn't wait and enjoyed every minute of it!

Brynn asks every day if she can go bowling again.. but ONLY with Dad!

It's always so sad to know that summer is coming to an end. But we sure have enjoyed it and all of our many activities!

I really don't want summer to end! It is my very favorite! Those were some very cute pictures of some very cute people! I was over at the lake the other day and no one was there, just a tube that looked exactly like one of those in the picture. Did you lose one? Israel and I are taking advantage of the other kids in school all day and still playing for as long as we can;)

I hate to see summer leave this year, more so than others... don't know why.
Love your photos, you children are so beautiful!

Fun, fun, fun!! It's funny, I am so ready to be done with our extremely HOT weather but there is something about the warm weather that gives you a different mentality....more relaxed. We are already full swing into school and soccer and it has actually been just too hot to get outside much so I hardly feel like its summer right now. Once it cools back down to normal, I will probably go back to summer mode. Hope you are enjoying school and looking forward to that beautiful fall weather. Give Mr. Justin a big kiss for Ella
