Our Summer adventures

As a lot of people may know the kids and myself spent the month of July and August in Nampa Idaho visiting my in-law. The kids and I spent the days swimming and playing with their cousins and hanging out with granma and grandpa. Jackson became an avid farmer, helping grandpa collect corn and pick tomoatoes from their garden and Bailee helped to gather beans. They all became very good at shucking corn. Harrison was very helpful to grandma in cutting the corn off of the cob to freeze too.

When we arrived in Idaho Jackson could not swim on his own and Harrison was terrified of the water and wouldn't even get in. When we left a few days ago Harrison was jumping into the water and Jackson was swimming laps. Amazing what daily dates with the neighbourhood pool does :)

We also celebrated Lincolns 7th birthday with grandma and grandpa and all of his cousins.

London is growing up before our very eyes. She has fallen in love with shoes, lip gloss, purses and babies. She is quite the ham and makes us laugh on a daily basis.

We have had a lot of fun, but also miss all of our friends and family in Calgary. We have spent many hours infront of the computer skyping and trying to stay in touch with everyone what we can. I am hoping that this blog will help everyone keep up with us and we will be able to keep up with everyone else.

Here are a few pictures of our summer adventures.
