We're sad summer is coming to a close. We've had a ball. Here's a glimpse at our summer. Ashton was very careful not to let Jack fall in with the sting rays.

We went to the Living Planet Aquarium with Grandma and cousins.

Played with the babies,

Isabelle got blessed,

Picked Mom flowers for Mother's Day,

Crashed after a hard-days play,

Played in the water at Canyonlands,

We camped, too, and rode motorcycles with our cool shirts,

Isabelle looked pretty in her dress Grandma Bonnie made,

Quinnie started Police Academy,

Fell in love with the girl next door,

Got candy at a parade,

Rode rides at a carnival,

Watched fireworks in the rain,

They were still pretty in the rain,

Rode a cow,

Rode a horse,

We love riding horses!
