Instagram-replay: more summer fun

This last month has been crazy! But next month will be even crazier! We are moving in a few weeks, but not sure where to and then into a house we are buying after a month more of paperwork. In the meantime here is a look back at what our summer has been like.


Barbie fashion shows have been all the rage at Grandma Jackie's house. Aunt Katie and Aunt Abbie dug out their dolls and 90s clothes. Big hair and bright colors!


It was warm outside so we found things to do inside, like going to air conditioned movie theaters. Both girls enjoyed the new Spider-Man movie. 


We finally got end of the year dance photos done, only a few months late, oops.  The piggyback photo was their request and it turned out so cute!


The library continues to be one of our favorite places.  In fact one of my biggest concerns about the upcoming move is "will we like the new library?" And it's going to be a library, what could we possibly not like!


15 years! Not sure what else needs to be said.  We went camping with the family for our actual anniversary but have a movie night planned, so it's all good.


While camping we went to the Sea Lion Cave. It was fun looking at the wild Sea Lion and exploring the dark area of the cave set up for visitors.  


Biggest event of the summer was the eclipse! We had so much fun making pinhole projectors and glimpsing the sun through our protective eyewear. Totally Amazing!


Living just outside of one of the major viewing areas, after the eclipse we had an equally unusual event, traffic backed up in front of our house.  Since I had leftover water bottles from camping, I put some out for the weary travelers. I heard it was taking over 2 hours to get 30 miles! 

So that was summer, even though it's not quite over yet between my classes starting again and the moves coming up my mind is moving on to Fall.
