Summer Fun

Summer is in full swing around here.  (Kind of has been since before school got out.) We have fully embraced the season, spending as much time as possible being outside and enjoying the long days.

We've done lots of porch sitting and made s'mores.

Played on the slip 'n slide.

Spent lots of time sitting or swinging in the hammock.

In Megan's case, she's been busy losing teeth.  One just before her 8th birthday,

And another one just after, with more being wiggly and loose.

We've made frequent trips to the surf shack for snowcones - sometimes by bike, sometimes by car.  The Stringham Family Peleton.

Samantha had to do most of the carrying and it we almost lost a couple, so

Shawn was inspired to make us a biek snowcone rack with 7 spots.  Carrying snow cones home shouldn't be a problem anymore.

Glitter face paints. (I was less than thrilled with this one.)

There's been a little rock climbing.

And a sure sign of summer, is that the karman ghia has been pulled out of storage.

And one minor car injury that began on a log up Millcreek Canyon and was finished by catching on something in the garage.  (And I can't even blame it on Jonas who has been busy every morning with driver's ed.)  Not to worry, Shawn fixed it up with a couple of zipties and things were good as new.

I seriously love summer.  It's going by way too fast.
