Oh July, How Fast You Flew!

Our sweet friends the Huberts came for a visit and now that they are gone; our house seems empty. Sniff. Boys camped in the boys room and girls upstairs. The Lord knit our hearts together as we enjoyed each meal together for 5 days along with Fine Arts camp, drive in movies, & rides at Bay Beach!

"Did you see how fast that roller coaster races?" -Lou to an adoring crowd

Gretta hosted a 4 session art class this summer in our basement. These lovely ladies seemed to have an enjoyable time!!

So long- Fricks! We love you!

In most ways, we were not expecting Granny to pass away when she did. These are the great grands singing "Jesus Loves Me" at her funeral. She made an impact on so many lives- I heard over and over at her funeral how she was so-and-so's favorite person. She lived an energetic life of fun and kindness.

These two at TJ Maxx...though these outfits were cute...

These were the take-home winners! Beautiful girls inside and out!
