Sweet Summertime . . .

Our Summer has been filled with sweet times

my parents visit yearly . . . .
 
We always enjoy our days together
 
We rode on an historic steam locomotive to take in God's beautiful handiwork

  Mount Rainier . . .
in all her glory . . .



































   

us in all our glory . . .





We made pretty sea shell centerpieces

Built a garden shed

Played some Yahtzee and worked on a puzzle

  
 Took in some fireworks at the lake

Painted rocks for the first time
Played on the swing-set . . .
went on walks . . .                                                                                                        


Goodbye July, we had a great time, the end
