We had a wonderful and busy summer. It started off with a sad note as our neighbors and good friends left and moved to TN. Caleb started his surgical residency in June and we wish him all the best. Their moving away though, did inspire us to revamp the backyard. We acquired from Craig’s list and awesome wooden swing set with 2 slides and a tree house type area. Abby had really wanted a tree house, but we don’t have great trees for putting one in. Also, Dave built an awesome sandbox big enough for both kids to play in. Zach has spent most of his summer in it. It is wonderful to see all the creative play with the tree house and the sand box.

Then Zach turned 3. I can’t believe how fast it goes. (Future post on the party with more pics to come)

Happy 4th of July and birthday to my mom.

Then we went to KY to visit with our best friends Earl and Candra. It was such a blast and a great way to spend a week. (Future post with more pics to come)

We had 2 new arrivals to the house. We got 2 new cats. A grey tabby (Rocky) and a tuxedo (Zorro).

We went to Kennywood. (Future post with more pics to come)

Dave had his birthday. Happy birthday my love!

We went to the zoo. (Future post with more pics to come)

Abby started 1st grade.

My mom, sister and I went to a Pirates game.

Abby turned 6. (Future post on the party with more pics to come)

Other fun picks of just some at home summer fun.

This was driveway paint that we made out of water, cornstarch, and food coloring. What great fun!
