Our Summer "done" list

We are slowly marking things off our summer "to do" list and turning it into a summer "done" list.

1.  Girls camp - done
2.  Scout camp - done
3.  Basketball camp - done
4.  Visit from cousing Candace - done

Now we are working on the things for this month:

1.  A visit to Grandpa's house.
2.  Teach Lindsey how to thrift store shop.
3.  Ride the horse.
4.  Attend Aaron's wedding

July doesn't look any calmer than June -  But that's OK - We like being busy.

A little bit hazy

This has been the scene from our yard for the last week.  I wish I could say that it was fog or smog but I can't.  It is actually smoke from the big fire in Arizona.  The wind has been blowing this in for almost a week now.  I must say that it is getting old.  We can't even really go outside for a split second without feeling the effect.


This is what the sun has looked like for the last several evenings.  Blue skies where are you????


I do hope that Mother Nature will cooperate so the firemen can get the fire under control and that those people who have been evacuated can get back to living their lives.
