This summer has been glorious! I feel like its been the perfect balance of relaxing and running around. The boys had 3 weeks of swim lessons with the best teacher ever! They love pairing up with the Edwards! G has made so much progress, head totally under the water and even is doing some strokes. I think he's showing off for lily:)
Days that drew is out of town or working late we head to the park or the library- happens more than we'd like but we are making the most of the situation. The boys have already fulfilled their summer reading goals. They love to be read to especially by drew.
As a reward of going on a long Saturday temple trip we took the boys to Henry's ark where anything goes. Feeding the zebras was the highlight.
Our little Annie is still passionate about life and has her own idea of how things should run. She's talking a lot, shoes still being her favorite word. She adores G. Follows him around saying "meer gg" here gg.
Last week we said goodbye to our good friends the Grigg's. We prepped Mac for their move all year. If you've asked Mac about his friends, mason Grigg would have been mentioned at least 5 times. We had one last girls night with Annmarie- the most fun I've had in a long time! Saying goodbye to this sweet family was harder than I thought it was going to be. I cried throughout the weekend and Mac has not stopped talking about our trip to new Mexico- which we've never talked about:)
We're excited to see what the rest of our summer holds...

Adventure day at shaker village
Shaker village is usually pretty Uneventful. Last Saturday they opened up the village for a free day of activities for families. Drew was a little leery but since we didn't have anything planed we decided to go.
The whole thing was so organized with different activities on the half hour. We started off seeing the birds of prey. There was a bald eagle, 3 owls, a falcon,2 hawks and a vulture. Pretty dang cool!
After we headed over to fishing. They had the fishing poles ready to go and we each got a cup of worms. In a little Over a half an hour both boys caught a fish. Success!! We finished the day going on a critter hunt. We met with a group and were taught how to find and catch crawfish, salamanders and little flat nose fish. Obviously the boys ate this up but were disappointed when neither of them caught a salamander. We called it a day after Mac pushed gray in the creek...
