August 2022 Recap

 We had a little bit of time before we left for Florida so we went mini golfing...





...and to the fair with Papa.



We took a final pontoon ride on Agate (with Rylee as captain!).





Then it was back to reality with Rylee in her last year of middle school and Jace in my class (for half the day anyway!).



Rylee and Emily are enjoying their last year together as well
 since they will be attending different high schools.  :(



We got our Covid boosters at the beginning of August in hopes of staying healthy (since this was our first year going to school without masks).  It worked for everyone, but me.  Three of the five 5th grade teachers got Covid the second week of school.  It was my first Covid experience and luckily it wasn't bad.  It was mostly 5 days of catching up on Netflix!  Lol  

All four of us have had Covid now (I was the last hold out).  Jace has had it twice actually (he just had it again in December).

July Recap - Cedar Crest

Cedar Crest was an amazing time as always.  We missed Gaga and Gypsy though.  Hopefully they will come this year.

The kids and dogs both love tubing. Lol!




The girls... 



The boys...



Recreating a classic pic with Rian :)



Rylee and Meg brought their ukuleles.  Rian brought her recorder.  
The boys handled backup "whoo hoos"!
"Build Me Up, Buttercup!"  



The men...



Cedar Crest 2022!
We are so thankful for this week with our "family!"

July Part 3 - Cousin Pics

We always do a big cousin photo shoot on the last day.  The kids actually get a kick out of it now and request certain photos.  So much easier than in the old days when we we had to bribe and/or distract them with snacks!






Love these kiddos.  Even if they are all growing up way too fast!  Nick graduates from high school this year.  :)
