Summer, Where Art Thou?

Yes, been a long time again since I have made the time to sit and get some blogging done.  In the meantime, summer has gone away, and now we are plodding through October on that slippery slope to winter once again.
It was a fun and busy summer so I guess that gives me some kind of excuse for not writing.
Here are a few things that happened:

 Brian and I took a bike ride along the Red Cedar trail and stopped to refresh ourselves in the river.

Spent the weekend at a cabin near Pelican Rapids MN with my family.  The grandkids sure liked that sweet corn!

Aubree spent her first week away from home at our house.  She was here for a week.  We had a good time, and ice cream was abundant!  The ride back home was long and hot, but we made it.  We read Cat in the Hat a few times and watched the cartoon so this is how we greeted Mom and Ethan.

I made a few batches of spaghetti sauce and tomato soup and built a fence.

I got to go grocery shopping with Aria and spend time with her at the water park.  We also celebrated her 2nd birthday and spent time at Lacey and Jonathan's pool.  As you can see in the photo, Ethan was all set to go swimming.

So that sums up the summer of 2014 and now life rushes onward as we approach 2015.  I do wish it would slow down a bit, but chances are that is not going to happen!
