Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me, and know my anxieties;
And see if there is any wicked way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting. Psalm 139:23-24

Closing Out Summer

The kids spent a few days at Grandma and Grandpa Fry's, and our trip to go get them got extended due to Marcus' work.  We ended up having to stay a night in Spokane, that turned out to be a blessing as we got to spend time with our friends, the Duggans.  Jen was a fabulous host with a few hours notice!  The kids did great together, again, and it was nice to spend a few hours kid free in the evening.  Thanks for such a great time!
 Her kids are all about 3 months or so younger than mine respectively.  Everyone had a playmate!
 The two 5 year olds were hilarious.  We never quite figured out what they were patiently waiting for with "guns" loaded!  They stayed like this for at least 5 minutes.

 
Our city puts on movies in the park during the summer, but we never made it to one this year.  So, we decided to do it in our backyard.  It was a lot of fun, even though some of the kids got restless towards the end.  Definitely a yearly event!

 
This is not a great pic, but I had to document that Ryn decided she could swim without help (except her lifejacket) this year.  Oh, what freedom I now have at a pool!
