Don't ask me where the Summer went... We didn't really go on any vacations. In fact, we didn't really even get out much. We hung out, mainly; just playing at home, going on short day hikes, taking trips to the library every other week, and hitting a couple of splash pads occasionally. A nice, lazy summer. We should do that more often!
Here are some other things that we did:
In June, we basically hung around the house. We got a small backyard wading pool and the kids had a blast splashing each other. We also had a small get-together on Father's Day - JJ's parents and his maternal grandparents came for a big Sunday dinner.
July was a busier month for us. On the first, I delivered my first "real" wedding cake to the reception of one of my neighbors. Afterwards, I headed home for a 4th of July Miller Family Weekend Gathering. JJ's sister, Amy and her family came all of the way down to St. George from Mountain Home, Idaho. We had many laughs with them as well as with JJ's parents and grandparents.
On the 15th, we celebrated Jason's 8th birthday. I can't believe that he is that old already! He is getting big so fast! The next day, I delivered another wedding cake to an open house, and stuck around to snap some pictures of the Bride and Groom and their guests. (IF you want to see more info on the wedding cakes, you can visit my other blog, www.marcismagicalmorsels.blogspot.com
August is actually only half-way done, but school is already in session. The kids started school yesterday. Yikes! On august 6th, we celebrated Jason's Baptism as the newest member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in our family, followed by a family meal at our house. We were very fortunate to have many family members come and celebrate with us!
So... There is our Summer 2011 in a few paragraphs. Pictures and details of the most exciting parts of our summer will be added as I get to them! :)
