end of summer rundown

Here's the skinny on the past few weeks:

We had a play-date at a wading pool with some good friends from out of town.

Then we continued to visit that same wading pool a few more times after.

It was kind of a fun spot. 

We went to see hot air balloons that did not go up due to weather.

So we went to the docks instead for the storm. 

You and Zachy had your last summer fling before Sarita came.

Then Sarita arrived!

We picked her up and took her home.

We enjoyed our first bonfire with her.

We took her to Sunday group for the first time.

Afton did a dance performance for us all.

We went to the Special Memories Zoo.

You got to pet a baby bobCAT.

He was beautiful.

You actually pet a lot of animals...

for a boy who won't usually go near undomesticated animals.

You even touched BIRDS!

 We took Sarita to the Farmers Market for her first time.

We went to the county fair.

We won some fun prizes for you.

You rode on LOTS of rides.

We saw a cool bengal tiger show.

You fell in love with the corn box.

Then we went to the NEW Zoo with some friends of ours.

There, you touched a snake! 

You and Sarita always seem to love the prairie dogs the most.

 We enjoyed our friends, Jenn, Manny and Little.

We wrapped up our summer vacation days with Jaymee at her pool.

The two of you swam like fish, all day long.

You were sad that it was her last day,

but we are looking forward to our special vacation plans

with her at the end of September! :)

Although, we were unable to do some of the things

I'd hoped to due to a nasty case of laryngitis and a cough I had for weeks,

all in all our summer was FILLED to the brim with fun!

And who knows what more we might sneak in 

here and there before the weather cools off. ;)
