Yes, I grew something!

I know you can't believe it, but I am growing a tiny garden this year. I mean tiny because most of the things I planted didn't work, oops. But, my zucchini plant is huge and here's our first one. We ate it last night for dinner and it was delicious. I also have 3 tomato plants. I hope I learned enough from this experience to do a better job next year.

Family Reunion


Jim's family had a reunion at the beginning of August. They camped in Hobble Creek Canyon for a few nights (and we slept in our lovely beds at home) and we all enjoyed a lot of family activities. It was a very nice weekend.

Slip N Slide

Liam and Gavin went Slip N Sliding with Trevan at Melissa's yesterday. I didn't think Gavin would like it, but he LOVED it. He laughed and laughed, until he fell at the bottom and bumped his head.


After bumping his head Gavin decided it was more fun to drink the water. Liam and Trevan had to dodge him on their way down.


Liam is a great helper. He always takes very good care of Gavin.

Liam gets his Webelos!

Liam earned his Webelos on July 30th. He has only been in since the beginning of May, but has a very motivated den leader. Our primary is pretty big and this is his den.


Liam got to put on the "mother's pin". I'm glad I wore layers to that I didn't get poked.


We are very proud of Liam! He's a good scout.
