Summer!

This summer has been so fun and has gone by so quickly!  As soon as I got back from Rwanda we had a guy named Michael come and stay with us.  He is from England and we hosted him as he taught at a week long soccer camp that both Luke and Gabe participated in.  He is hosted by different families all over the northwest as he teaches these camps.  He was so nice and pleasant to have around.  My kids loved hanging out with him and said they wished they could keep him forever.  We loved hearing his British accent and hearing all about his little town in England where he's from.

Here's a picture from our Father's Day dinner.

Cute picture of Piper.

We went to McCall a couple of times this summer.  The first time was the end of June.  The kids wanted Piper to tube and she didn't mind although I'm not sure if she loved it or not.

Gabe wanted to learn how to drive the boat.

Ian was happy whenever he had the chance to pee off the side of the boat.

Here are some more cute pictures of Ian.

Here's Maryn relaxing in the boat.

Here are some pictures from a beautiful hike we took.

Next time I blog I'll put on our pictures from our trip to Canada.
