My zinnia flower garden is exploding!
If someone came into our home while we weren't here - it would be obvious we are a TEENAGER house!
This pull up bar is constantly on one of the door frames -
Our garage freezer is packed with treats like this as well as Ninja Cream ice-creams ready to mix -
A blow up water bed is by the back door for when the UV is over 7 . . .
Molly and Anna - joined friends to paint ceramic mugs . . .
Our 5th Annual Neighborhood Pickleball Tournament!
Mike and our neighbor Mike Kerwin played doubles together . . . 
St Teresas Conditioning Carpool all summer! Fun group of 13 year olds getting up early for 8 weeks this summer to have fun, work out and do some weights!
Kate volunteered a couple weeks this summer with Imagination Camp for young kids - she loved getting creative with them while earning service hours.
It was the end of an era! After many years it was time to say goodbye to our beloved playhouse in the back yard. Our Apple valley twin neighbors who are 2, asked if they could have it - and how could we say no!? Molly and Kate babysit for them often and so it will be fun for them to get to play in it with them while babysitting . . .
I picked up Kate's phone by accident thinking it was mine - and this was the text on it - for a split second I thought MY Mom & Dad were texting me and I got so excited. What I would give to get a text from my mom again!
Harper's annual birthday party swim party!
Kate has babysat for the Tudos family twice a week all summer in the afternoons - and has loved playing with their 3 littles (ages 1, 4, and 6). She always comes prepared with fun ideas to do with them. One day she brought over a stone making kit to do with them -
Kate and I went to the OP Farmer's Market and tried these slushies . . .
It's been a great summer so far!
