Disclaimer: I have resolved never to start a blog post by apologizing or remarking on the fantastically long period of time that has passed since the previous post. I love blogging and posting pictures and writing about our adventures so that our friends and family can enjoy them (after all, that's why I take pictures in the first place - so I can share the fun memories with everyone and remember them down the road!) BUT... life is busy, and sometimes the pictures are slow to be posted... and I think that's okay. I don't want to be one of those moms that doesn't have time to jump on the trampoline with her kids because she's too busy posting pictures of them jumping on the trampoline.
Anyway.... On with the post. To be honest, this summer has been one of the hardest, if not the hardest. Ryan and I have both been SO busy with work and things. Between our regular jobs, lawns, sprinklers, invoicing, working around our apartment complex, housework, groceries, and our side ventures of Party Pak and selling furniture, often we don't stop working until 9:30 or 10:00 at night, just in time to talk for a few minutes and go to bed. It wears on you after a while. However, we still had time to do some great things, go on some trips, and enjoy the free time we find. More to come on the rest of the summer in a future post (
once I get the pictures off Ryan's phone... :) )
