NE Hillsboro Update

We LOVE LOVE LOVED seeing all of you at the Reunion. It was a nice week. Our kids were in "cousin heaven."

We were happy to see our home after being away for 17 days. Our garden was a jungle though. We had lots of zucchini awaiting us. Unfortunately, it's been a cool summer, so no red tomatoes yet. (We just had our first day OF THE YEAR over 90 degrees on the weekend. We are still waiting for red tomatoes. Isn't that crazy??)

We got home in time for Jason to go to Cub Camp. He loved every minute! Plus, he got a special treat as Ryan's Pack was there the same week.

We've just enjoyed the little things this summer: swimming at the local pool, family bike rides to the library, playing with friends, arts and crafts, lunch with Dad (it's nice that Chad can come home for lunch!), and playing lots of games. Matt made a goal to learn EVERY game that we own. (It's kept us quite busy. :) )

We LOVED having Pauline and the kids come for a week and were glad that Terry could also come for a couple of days. We had a GREAT time with them. Kira, Elijah, and Makell went to EFY at the Stake Center by our house everyday from 9-9. We liked hearing about their adventures each day. (AND you should see Elijah's new sweet dance moves!!) We played, shopped, and stayed up late. The kids were entertained for HOURS and HOURS doing "melting beads." Who would have thunk it?

Soccer has now started. Crazy! All four kids are playing. We are enjoying and relishing our last couple of weeks of summer as we hear about the Utahns going back to school. Hope it's a great school year for everyone!
