July Fun

July has been a great month! Our landscaping was done, we celebrated the 4th of July, and this past week we went up into the mountains for our annual Haymond Family Fun Day!

Amelie and Calder have started taking swimming lessons. They are having so much fun!

Amelie and Calder have started taking swimming lessons. They are having so much fun! This is the pool at our local rec center just across the road from our house.

Amelie is so dedicated to her ice skating. She's started going during public skate times to practice--she goes around and around the rink--and her skating is really improving! I'm really proud of her for her desire to practice and improve. This night there was hardly anyone at the rink. The rink, by the way, is adjacent to that cool pool from my first picture.

Easton caught his very first fish! It was the only fish that anyone in our group caught that day. He was excited, but also a bit nervous about the flopping fish when he reeled it in.

This is what a day of fishing, hot dog and marshmallow roasting, and rafting will do to ya!

Hurray for summer! It’s been a great one. Oh, and Liam is walking now! New walkers are just the cutest thing.
