Good-bye

It's that time again, to say, "Good-bye".  

Goodbye hot summer days. Good-bye flip-flops, popsicles, and green grass between my toes. Good-bye lunches in the park and fresh cold watermelon. Good-bye days of laying out in the sun while reading a good book. Good-bye pool, lake and river rafting. Good-bye, exercising outside. Good-bye, playing in the backyard. Good-bye to all my favorite things. I love summer and am always sad to see it go and to see a cold, blistery winter take over. But that's life, and I guess you have to take the good with the bad. I am excited for Halloween, and decorating for fall, and Christmas. I am excited to see my kids' reaction coming up in 4 weeks when we tell them we are going to Disneyland!! (Shhh...don't tell! It's a secret!)

Here are the last few pictures of us enjoying Summer... 

Eating lunch at the park

Grandpa and Grandma's house, riding a 4 wheeler. 

They are so spoiled!

At the fair with all the Princesses!! Snow White, Angela and Sleeping Beauty, Shalene are friends of mine from our old Pocatello ward. They are such great ladies! And they are amazing singers!

Avery and I got to make a wand together and do lots of games. Avery won a two prizes. Good job Avery! 

There was a bouncy house too. 

We went to Nat Su Poo, a lava hot springs resort only 20 minutes south of Twin. It was really fun and the water was perfect for the kids. We went down with 7 other families from our ward and neighborhood. 

In line for the diving board. All the other kids in line are from our ward and neighborhood.

There goes Madisen... 

There goes Emily... 

And finally, there goes Avery...

We had a great time with all our friends that day.

The other fun thing we did a lot this summer, was head to the movies! We got to see 7 movies this summer and the girls looked forward to go almost every week. Cousin Colton came with us one time too. 

We had a great summer, it literally wore us out...

Good-bye Summer! We will miss you!
