So Long, Summer!

Wow. I have done a bad job of blogging this summer. Oh, well! I'll just have more things to talk about this fall, right? However, in big news, today is the LAST DAY OF SUMMER 2011. Whoa. (Only Noah starts tomorrow, the other two technically have a few more weeks but we have no big plans.) So let's take a quick look back, shall we? Three months coming right at you - get ready!

Along with our dear friends, the Potts Family, we welcomed home Baby Andrew. (To say our family - especially the children - are smitten would be an understatement.)
We celebrated Father's Day.
We celebrated Grandma Page's birthday.
We went to Vacation Bible School.
Benjamin created "Brother's Day" where he got to eat breakfast in bed.
We celebrated Daddy's birthday.
We read A LOT of books. (For some reason these two always ended up reading about "Stink bugs" and then laughing uncontrollably...)
We crammed ourselves into a tiny pool for some outdoor fun.
We celebrated our anniversary. (#8)
We made the local news.
We saw "Winnie the Pooh."
The boys made their way to Michigan.
Our car thermometer was stuck in the triple digits for waaaayyyyyyyy tooooo long this summer.
Mama took the kiddos to the zoo.
School supplies were purchased, labeled, delivered to school.
And, last but not least, special 6 yr olds were put to bed as past kindergarteners. When next we see him, he'll be a first grader. Man, we should have spent longer on our summer....
