July was Busy!

July was a busy month compared to a very isolated/quaranteed Spring! 
These photos don't really want to cooperate. I'm going to label them, but they aren't really in date order...


Made pickles! :)  


Birthday girls!

Birthday Boy!

We went to West Virginia to visit with our friends Jeff and Liz and their kids.  It was a fun day of exploring - we were so happy that it worked out to see them. 




This was from the fourth of July.  HOT morning for biking!  April's bike also broke and I sent them all back to the van while I ran/rode her bike back....I was ready to jump in the Hoffman's pool for sure! 



Camping with the BarHoffDavSan group was quite eventful this year.  Connor caught a chipmunk, we climbed a mountain, we fixed broken cars, pinched fingers, and brush burns; hiked; stepped in a bee's nest....and everyone hugged goodbye and happily headed home ;)







We got to visit with Mimi on our way home from camping.  Chloe is now as tall as Mimi :)


We also spent a weekend at our friend's cottage near Pymatuning Lake. We had SO much fun - it was the perfect amount of activity and relaxation! 








During the last weekend in July (I told you it was a busy month!) I got to go away for an overnight with my sisters.  We relaxed and laughed a lot. It was fun and I hope it becomes an annual event!!

Spring has sprung?

This week has brought some strange weather! On Saturday, it was freezing while we watched Peter's baseball game - it was the "late night, under the lights" 8:00 pm game. and my toes were numb when the game was over. Then, Sunday was beautiful weather to watch soccer! April scored TWO goals in her game! We had a silent-auction at a church lunch on Sunday to raise money for the Youth Group Missions Trip. Peter bid on a cooler full of interesting flavored soda-pop....and he won! The first one he tried? Pickle Pop.  For a few years, our neighborhood has been the area of choice for a few mallard ducks to nest. The momma duck picked my neighbors' driveway this year...it seems like Spring must be coming if there are eggs!

Crazy May

 As is typical with three active kids, we've had a busy last few weeks! Photos coming soon of the dance recital, Peter's birthday party, school activities and more :)  Here is our May started: No power for 5 days! A wind-storm went through our area and several power lines were knocked over. We did have school for 3 days. The weather was perfectly sunny and 70 degrees, so it wasn't too bad :)

Happy 4th Birthday Chloe!

You are growing into a compassionate, cheerful, young lady! We love you Chloe and are looking forward to this year with you!! 2009 2010 2011 2012 2013
