Independence day. and before.
Well, It was a whirlwind of summer activities.
( Lots of photos here...)
Starting Saturday June 26th.
Megan and Aaron were home alone with Abbi since the others went to Valley Fair.
They came over to our house for supper, and came wearing crowns made by the talented Mr. Aaron.
( This picture isn't posed by the way.)
They were fixing up a fairy house. I thought that Aaron and Megan's crowns were just marvelous so I asked Aaron to make me one too. I had to pay him 3 birch dollars though.
Aaron informed me what he was going to be when he grew up.
A Professional Golfer.
He actually was pretty good. He got high and far hits. Dad was worried about us hitting windows. With good reason. :)

We went to pick Blueberries.
We got quite a few, although there was more green than blue berries.
But I got enough to make a pie.
It was pretty crazy, They only stayed on the bulls for very very short amount of time. They came out and then were thrown off of the bull.

Luke and I went to Mathew and Emily's to play games with a few others.
It was a lot of fun.
We played 'Catch-a-Phrase'.
I went to a rodeo with Becky, Irindee, Darrell, Colin and Keith.
My first ever.
That was also a lot of fun.
Here is a cowboy/bull catcher.

That was really cool.

It was so very very busy!
We had church in the morning and then right after that we had a picnic on the court house lawn and then some of us walked in the parade.

I saw Nikowa. :) Sweet girl.
Abbi, Instructing something or someone I think. :)
After we had gone home(briefly) and taken naps we went back to church and then after that some of us went to Pizza Hut.

It was a very welcome treat as we got very hot and tired while walking.
we walked at least 3 1/2 miles.

Matt and Becca.
Luke bumped Aaron and it hurt, So here is Luke trying to make it better with a kiss.
My incredibly sweet and silly niece.
I had root beer. MUG root beer to be exact. Just thought you might want to know.
1. Abbi blinks a lot. This shows up in my pictures. but I like her smile.
2. Ken, you can obviously tell, was forced to smile and look at the camera.
3. The guy in the table behind us thought we were really weird.

I tried to take pictures of fireworks.
Mara would tell you that too. She sat next to me and was kinda amazed at how many I was taking ( around 250).
I couldn't quite get them right though.
Oh well. More practice for next year. :)
