Summer 2011

Instead of posting each event of the summer here is a recap of what we've been up to...

We've roasted more s'mores than anyone's tummy really needs, spent LOTS of time at area parks,

enjoyed Henry's over-zealous hugs while attempting to get a good picture,took some walks through the woods,

looked adorable at Justen's (Lynn's hottie of a son) graduation party,

watered the flowers...and each other,

played some hop skotch on hot summer days,

went to Grandma Debbie's and played beauty shop with Aubrey Mae,

attended a 4th of July parade,

took many trips to the MN Zoo...this one happened to be with almost all our cousins,

had the Berlings over for our first annual Pan-O-Prog days,

went to Cara's first movie~Winnie the Pooh (yes, even Winnie the Pooh is a little too scary for Brynn and Cara was just starting to run a fever, as we found out when we got home, so needless to say it wasn't our best first),

spent plenty of time in our neighbors pool...even Henry Dennis got to take a dip or two,

had MANY picnics (so many that a picnic lunch no longer is appealing to me),

spent lots of time at the local beaches,

played T-ball with Daddy,

went through buckets of chalk tracing our bodies,

and finally, had lots of picnics out on our deck.

I am so fortunate that I chose a profession that allows me to spend three of the best months in Minnesota with the two best girls in the whole wide world. Thanks for the BEST summer 2011 Brynn and Cara!
