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!!

Wedding!

Congratulations to the new Mr. and Mrs. Martin! :) We attended Natalie and Dallas' wedding on Saturday and had a lovely time. We know both the bride and groom from college....and just happen to be great friends with the bride's parents as well (Hi Bill and Doreen!). Here is the new couple - Natalie looked beautiful, and Dallas looked pretty good too ;) Here I am with the bride - check out her BLUE shoes! No wedding is complete without a little dancing and singing....particularly to Livin on a Prayer....Steve, Jeff, and Kevin sang at the top of their lungs and performed an air guitar solo: even the bride joined in: We had a great time! I'm thinking of the honeymooners.....kind of wishing I was on a tropical island somewhere too! :)

Baby Pool

Want to guess when Baby #2 is going to arrive? Post a comment, or send me an email, with your guess and I'll add you in! As a review, here are the rules to the game (taken from Heather Deterding!): 1. Post your guess for the baby's arrival in the "comment" section. Be sure to specify both date and time of day -- either "am" or "pm". 2. Limit one guess per person, and only one entry per time slot-- no sharing! 3. Winner is determined based on time of birth. For example, if the baby is born on April 20th at 7 AM, a guess of "April 20th, AM" would be the winner. In the event that there is no entry for the correct arrival time, the next closest guess based on actual time of birth would win. 4. We will post entries on the Calendar above. Check prior entries before placing your guess! Dates not displayed on the calendar above are still up for grabs. 5. The winner will receive... bragging rights and a congratulatory post h
