Summer Finale

This summer flew by! Between losing our internet for a few weeks and all our family activities, there was no time left to update the blog. Here is a quick and dirty update of our adventures from the rest of July and August.


We hiked Sugarloaf Mountain....gorgeous views!..


Visited the National Air and Space Museum in D.C...


Walked the Mall (I think I'm trying to channel Nixon?)...




Played at the park...


Went tubing and water-skiing....


Hung out on the dock...


Wore our cowboy boots to the pool!...


AND MY FAVORITE PART......



Went to the most inspiring graduation...

Private First Class Kyle F. Nyland



So proud of this man!!



Hayden's new best friend....


Visited some distilleries in Kentucky....


Hiked Carter Caves (there were even BATS!!)...


And got chased home by a Great White....


We had a great summer. It started out with a road trip to Savannah, Georgia and ended with a road trip to Fort Knox, Kentucky. We were lucky enough to be able to see my younger brother Kyle graduate from boot camp. What a great experience that was. Sad to see the summer go, but everyone is excited to start the new school year!

What a busy summer! It flies by way too fast, huh? We've actually been to some of those places in DC when Cass was a baby. I'd love to take all the kids when they're a little older too. So many things to see. :)
