As we approach Labor Day Weekend in a matter of days and the beginning of school (the upper classmen parking lot filled up overnight last night), we begin to dream of football and cooler weather. But we also think back to the highlights of our summer. Here's a smattering of summer '07 photos that didn't make it in the blog at the time...
One Sunday afternoon we decided to take the kayaks out with our friend Faith. Who happened to be dropping in the river right in front of us? Our friends the Bathjes and Coppedges! All three families have daughters born with 8 months of each other!
During our visit to my parents' home, we got Ellie on this rocking horse that was a toy of my grandmother's, dating back 80+ years!
(from our July Illinois trip) Nathan's sister, Rebecca, was the only one of us who made it all the way to Wagonseller Road! The Mackinaw is a tricky river...just ask my Dad (sorry, Dad -- that was an adventure we won't forget anytime soon). The photo below was taken at the beginning of the trip -- one of the last known photos of Dad in those glasses.
We got to see family which is the best. Here we are above with my family in front of the
Beaumont Inn (yes, Ellie was overdue for a nap -- I love how Tua is looking at her disgruntled cousin like, "Why are you so unhappy?"). Below, Ellie shares a special moment with Nathan's Uncle Jack. Isn't this a sweet photo?
