Summer is too short!!

As I am getting older I think I crave warmth and summer even more. I am sorry again that I haven't kept up with this! Our summer consisted of camps, camps and more camps. We had a cooler summer and the kids are now going back to school on Aug 19 (their open day of school which you can see in the latest picure!) Also we planted tomatoe plants this year and will now have a lot of tomatoes-yum!
Ian is now starting football practice on Aug 24 and is so excited to wear the gear and be on the Saints team. I will have to blog pictures of that! Next weekend we are taking the boys tent camping and that should be fun. I have so many great memories of camping when I was growing up and even it my sister had a marshmallow caught in her hair - it made for a lot of memories and that is what we want for OUR kids. I hope Doug's back will stand sleeping in a sleeping bag. This summer the boys were able to see family and it included climbing Black Mountain in Wyoming. Now Ian is totally into hunting and wants to go Elk hunting with his Uncle Chris! Will write later- thanks for checking in!
