A Pool Day!

The Boys,

The Girls,



Miss Kate, &


The Moms.


Horse Camp

Heather started a horse camp this summer at

her farm. A week long session for kids 8 and older.

Melina and Breanna really enjoyed there week at camp.


All tacked up & ready to ride!

The girls were so excited for the first day - they could


hardly wait to get on the horses.




They all really liked the new puppy!











Braden & Jenna watching the girls ride in the ring.

(They also enjoyed some time on the horses. )


Jenna & Braden riding double.






Cleaning out the stalls.

The girls had so much fun learning and doing

so many things with the horses.

The week before they went to camp the girls had

made a special folder for horse camp, and had all of

there matching outfits laid out for the week of

horse camp. It was so fun to see how excited they

were about it.






Headed out on a trail ride, & to pick blueberries.



Craft time at camp.




A few cowgirls!











A Day at the Beach!

Jean & I took the kids to Hampton Beach.
Wow was it crowded!!!!
The water was its usual freezing temp. but
the kids still had fun playing in it.



Warming up in the sand.

We walked up to the playground after we had
our picnic lunch.


We parked our car right next to the water park,

so of course we had to give the slides a try. They had lots of fun!

(In the background you can see a green & white slide.

you get in a double tube and down you go and then into a

big circle that you go around a couple of times and then down out

the bottom. Braden called that ride the toilet bowl.












Another fun day at the pond

I ask the kids what they want to do today, And
I always get the same answer: go to the pond!
But don't you want to go to the pool? No we want
to swim in the frog pond. OK off we go!!!!



Sunbathing in the warm sand.
