Summer Full of Fun!!!!!

Well... Where do I begin!!! We had a blast this summer. From water fights, rock climbing, Steve riding a John Deer lawn mower and wishing :) meeting new friends, I was able to see my best friend Angie this summer. We have been friends since the 3rd grade!!! That is a very long time ago but it was sure fun seeing her and spending time with her! 4th of July, going to the zoo, lemonade stands, swimming, boating, the girls making their own grocery store, our dog lacy going into heat on our way home, spending time with Steve's family and Julie's family, Ella getting a new quilt from her Aunt Gina which she just loves to pieces, being able to go the the new temple open house which was just awesome. My girls loved going in all of the rooms and thought that the mirrors were just so beautiful. Ella, said "I can see a lot of me way down there!" It was really special to be able to talk to the girls about the temple and how special it is!! After explaining to them a few things they are so excited that they get to go there for real someday!!! It is never an easy thing to say good-bye but we knew that the trip needed to end sometime but we can't wait to see them again!!! I think one of the hardest things for us was saying good-bye to Reilee. We had to drop her off at the airport and every time we do we just bawl our eyes out!!! Oh how we miss her but we are looking forward to seeing her for Christmas! Yeah!!!!
