We're back home with lots of pics to share

We actually got back home last Saturday night, but then had family in town and a busy week, so I'm just now getting around to downloading pictures from our trips.  We've had a great couple of weeks.  We got to see lots of family, the boys had a blast with their D.D. (Jason's mom), Cole got to celebrate his birthday multiple times, Caleb was a sweetie staying with friends, and Jason and I had a wonderful time at camp.  It was great to spend some quality time with teenagers again.  It reminded me how much I love spending time with them, praying for and with them, and just being a part of their lives.  I'm hoping to start teaching at church again soon. 

I tried to narrow some of my favorite pictures from the last few weeks, but it was hard. These are from 4th of July weekend where I took Cole and Connor to my aunt's house and then on to D.D's house. Later I'll share some from camp and birthday boy Cole.

Some pics from this past week

I am heading out of town tomorrow for the weekend and next week for camp so this will probably be the only post for a couple of weeks.  We have been super busy this summer and I've been so homesick.  We haven't had a chance to go "home" this year so I'm really looking forward to seeing my family at my aunt's this weekend.

I thought I share a few pictures of Cole and Connor though since I was just downloading them.  The first is just some sprinkler fun.  Then, Connor had a blast with a bubble machine we bought as you can tell. :)
