Sadly our wonderful summer days are ending! We have had a fabulous summer like no other. We spent 5 weeks out west swimming, playing with cousins, eating, four wheeling, playing on the beach, missing our daddy for 3 of those weeks (while he went back home in order to stay employed), visiting the temple, hanging with family to name a few things. I hope to write more about our time in Utah, Wyoming, Arizona and Oregon. We had so much fun and surprisingly were not ready to come home.
I am not ready for the busy schedule that comes with school and other activities. It has been so nice to be uncommitted all summer long. Fall is going to be busy. We will have a 3rd grader, Kindergartner, and a preschooler; 2 in soccer with their dad as the coach, 2 in piano with their mom as the teacher-along with some other students; photography keeping David very busy with school pictures and Christmas cards; and thats just for starters. Should I wonder why I am sad to see summer go?
In a few days, I will stop being sad and turn my focus forward because there are great things in change and schedules and Fall in Michigan.
Above is cute Christina and Sarah, looking out over the Oregon Coast in Lincon City. They were attempting not to get wet as we were going to have a family photo shoot. They were almost successful!
I love having a photographer in the house. It is just not always easy to get a family photo. We did attempt to get one on the beach in Oregon.
Maybe it is just the mom who isn't ready. They sure look bored.
Can't you just hear them saying "Is it over yet?"

Your beach pictures are precious.
I love the cute family pics. I'm glad we're still in the same ward. You have a wonderful family.
What a cute family! It sounds like you had a wonderful vacation traveling throughout the good ole west! Next time you are in the Boise area give us a call and say Hello. I am sure our daughters would have a fantastic time together. Miss you!
P.S. It's great to see an update on your blog!!
Loved seeing your family -- all beautiful and growing so fast. As far as your question, I keep a notebook all year long that I wright the funny things the kids say and do. Then each Christmas, I add the card and list to an album we keep on the coffee table. It is fun to read past year's lists and giggle over how silly they were. Have a great Christmas!
