Mary Takes Pictures of Us

Try to guess what each of us is doing... a good slice of where you find us each day. :)

Best of Summer

One. Big. Recap. With fall weather beginning (..well, at least in the mornings...), here is a look back at our summer and family trips.

Not much rain. The girls giving the umbrella some love.
I was amazed how quickly they threw themselves back into playing with each other.
Lots of nature collections,
A cool breeze on a summer night.
We tried to play tag barefoot on this patch of dry grass. Ouch!

Best of Summer

Those eyes...
Big for her britches!
Sisters thru the ups and downs,
Zzzzzzzzzz.

More Summer

the beginnings of the school year...
S.W.A.M.P. (Summer Worship Arts and Music Program) A week long camp full of singing, crafting and bible stories. They put on a musical at the end of the week. A success!

And deserving of a whole post in itself, Corrie rides a bike! We only waited until 3 weeks before school started to tackle that. :)

Granger Trip

Brian and I enjoyed nature as we scouted locations for a wedding he had there. It was beautiful on St. Mary's campus but never happened because of severe thunderstorms the next day. The worst! Oh well, we had a good time :)
Two smiling girls who have a grandpa that will put anything in his pond for them :) He put buckets in there so they could get in and out easier.
They love that pond! 
We went up to the farm the last evening and had one of those times that you just never want to end.
Story time around the Graber kitchen table.

Missouri Trip

Ate every lick of this delicious homemade chocolate chip ice-cream.

Girl cousins checking on the chickens.
It was a very hot week in St. Louis that week, and by the end we were not feeling so well.  We did manage to have some fun though :)... this was a neat-o city pool we went to.  The girls loved the lazy river and whirlpool.
At the Science Center in St Louis.
