A Few Pictures From The Summer

Here are a few pictures that we never posted from this summer. I am already starting to miss the summer weather. It probably doesn't help that this summer never got too hot. It was a pretty mild summer so I didn't get sick of the hot weather.Bristol playing around in Kali's cradle that I had been meaning to pack away for some time.
There is nothing like escaping a heat wave like spending time at the beach.
Fourth of July at Donner Lake by Lake Tahoe. Bristol was showing a little cheek.
The first time our house was toilet papered by the young men from church. The second time was when Nate was gone for two weeks. I told the young men that they had to give me a break and make sure that Nate was home if they were going to T.P. our house again.
At the beach with some friends.
The smokey sky. This picture was taken in the middle of the day in the end of June. It was when there were all of the forest fires everywhere. It was pretty smokey out for weeks.
I swear it is the hardest thing to get me to have Bristol keep her clothes on.
Bristol reading Cinderella to Kali. However you must beware, there is no touching of the book allowed. If you do this is the result:
One little baby that is totally oblivious to what is going on and a pouting older sister.
Our craft project. Bristol saw some "happy trees" in a magazine and wanted to make some for our trees. So we finally got around to it. She helped me make them out of clay and then she pretty much painted them by herself (with only a little assistance from me).


AHHH Summer. We can't wait until next year.

Fun pictures! The happy tree is adorable (as is Bristol's bum)! The toilet paper job is quite impressive, and the picture of the smoke is just eerie. Thanks for the encouragement to keep reading - I'll call soon and we can chat about it all!

I love the happy tree. It makes me happy. LOL Is it still up?

Yes the happy tree is still up. Every time we come home from a walk Bristol makes a comment about it not being happy until we are home.
