Just a few things we've been doing this summer. We took a family bike ride to the Great Dismal Swamp Canal Trail (minus Pierce who was still at scout camp). It's a gorgeous trail just perfect for us novice riders. Thanks to Dr. Blackwood (the doc Ry shadows) for giving us bikes so we all have one!
I needed a helmet so I wore Ry's leaving him to wear Pierce's, a little small, but luckily his head isn't very big (inside joke)
My very own bike! Haven't had one since I was young.
Moving the flagpole so you can see it better from the road without the plum tree covering the flag up.
Our once lush garden that is now dwindling in total unbelief! So sad. Weird stuff has been going on with bugs, etc. This growing season was definitely a learning experience for us.
Adding on to the deck.
I am in love with all my herbs. They are simply beautiful, fragrant, and so fun to use.
Tilling up the back "lawn". We plan to plant new grass in the fall.
We are enjoying having a baby around this summer! There's nothing like the smell of a baby. Pure therapy! The girls are earning money for school clothes by babysitting two precious little girls from our ward. The boys like to help too!

Looks like you've had a great summer! Love it that you rode a bike. Bikes hurt my little tooshy too bad!
Great Dismal Swamp? I think they could use a little PR overhaul. Although, first thing I learned in PR was that there is no such thing as bad publicity. So maybe they know what they're doing after all.
Sounds like you all are having one fabulous summer!
The Nauvoo trip looked awesome! We can't wait to do it someday.
I'm so sad about Peirce leaving me behind in primary. But I know...they have bigger and better things to look forward to.
It was good to see all your lovely faces from a far yesterday at church!
