**There is a new food truck around. Close enough to patronize, but not so close that we break the budget indulging ourselves. Because their acai bowls are SO good! And refreshing on a hot summer day! It's a personal plus that they are parked right down the street from my favorite scrapbook store...
**Jeremy's journey to a pilot license was full of bumps and stalls, but I never gave up believing he could do it. As his biggest cheerleader, I envisioned being his first passenger but that didn't happen. Finally Arianna & I told him he has to take us up before he's allowed to take anyone else. LOL
The surreal occasion - first time in the air with the family pilot!
From above, our community appears so compact. Our house (& neighbors) from 1000 ft.
We get asked frequently what's next. He's accumulating flight hours to move up to the next level.
**When wild black raspberries are in season and Colton wants a pie... Grammie delivers.
**A family camping weekend is one of my favorite summer activities.
I would camp more often if I could con the rest into going.
Wyatt has absolutely NO fear of water -it takes a watchful eye every second if we take him to the beach. He loves it, but we adults sprout new grey hairs trying to keep his face out of the water.
**VBS is done for another year. Arianna did a great job with the craft station again.
It was Colton's first year attending our VBS.
**Sunflowers that decided to self-seed in our garden (along with zucchini & pumpkins)
**Richard has hauled several loads of rolled sod to new Raisin' Canes restaurants.
Meanwhile it got so dry and scorching hot that our own lawn turned brown & crispy.
**Birthday brunch for the matriarch of the Miller family
**Packing 2000 packages of soup mix for Ukraine was an enjoyable activity with our church family.
**My car turned over to 200k miles in July. I like driving a car again, after years of minivan-ing.
**I always struggle to keep hanging baskets nice all summer long on our front deck. I took this one down to plant something else in it and -surprise! Mama song sparrow had built a nest in my pot. Dear me, I was probably flooding her nest every time I watered the flowers.
**One evening we took Avery & Colton to see a live stage production of Beauty & the Beast. They loved it! We have this old historic theater in town (with the original seats & box office window) that desperately needs some TLC, but they do a fine job with wholesome community theater & musicals.
My favorite characters was Mrs. Potts & Chip.
Summer is rushing by. Before we know it, summer's heat will be just a memory and we'll be dealing with snow again. The older we get the faster time flies.
