Here's a quick recap of our summer months...
The dryer almost burned our house down.
No worries, it's fixed now.
Fun Day at Wells Fargo in Phoenix.
Cool little museum.
The kids got to feel like executive bankers while eating their lunch in the board room.
Thanks for the tour, Shelle.
The kids got to ride the Light Rail and the Orbit bus from Tempe to Phoenix and then back home again.
Haley got her wisdom teeth removed.
Fun Day at the Tempe History Museum.
They turned into the Village People for a couple of hours.
No words for this picture.
We went on a fun weekend trip to Pinetop and Snowflake.
Touring my great, great grandparent's home.
Found a gravestone with an unfortunate placement of the name over the meme, FOR TIME AND ALL ETERNITY.
Parade time.
Quick trip to Las Vegas for the parents.
Quinny discovered that getting the mail on her bike with a backpack is the way to go!
New way to give back rubs.
Quinny started 2nd grade.
Mimi started 6th grade.
Eric started 10th grade.
Robert started a gang.
He recruited the little guys.
This evil bug stung me on the tip of my middle finger.
Eric became an Eagle Scout.
So did nine other boys from his troop!!
I got the mom pin, which I really didn't deserve.
With some help from his leaders, Eric did the work!!
Quinny decided we needed perfume handy while we did our afternoon reading -
"...just in case one of us farts."
Robyn flew the nest and headed to Ohio to start college.
Mimi started soccer and tennis.
She also decided to grow up!!
Not so much a little girl anymore.
Haley started her new semester at MCC.
And Quinny finally advanced a level in swimming.
YAY!!
That was a quick and dirty update.
Until next time...
