Summer happenings

Summer is quickly drawing to an end and we are doing our best to squeeze in as much fun during these last few weeks before everything changes.

A couple weeks ago we met up with some friends for our second trip to 6 flags Elitch Gardens this summer

Jack and Lily with their friend Lucca

The whole silly gang

Jack has been taking golf lessons this summer and for the graduation they held a family golf day on the golf course. 

With an ice cream party afterwards:

We also participated in the 2nd of the 1 mile family fun runs. 

I had anticipated sticking with Lily while Jack and Luke ran the race since Lily walked most of it last time. But this time Lily surprised all of us when she wanted to keep running with Luke and Jack and left me in her dust. She even outran Jack to the finish line.

Here we are after the race

The kids and I were able to make it to one of the local fun days hosted by our city where the kids got to ride in a train

Sit in a police car

And eat cotton candy

And we had a visit from my Aunt Eileen and her kiddos who we hadn't seen for 2 years.

It's hard to believe that we only have less than a month before Jack starts 1st grade, Lily starts preschool and the baby is due to arrive! These next few weeks are going to be pretty slow as we wind down the summer and get ready to welcome the new changes
