Pretty much just a picture post.  It's been a busy summer, but I'm not really sure what we've been busy doing.  Ha!

{ Camp Lake Stephens }

Anna Grace and Sarah had a blast at camp!  They were gone for a full 6 days, so we really missed them.  I swiped some pictures from the CLS website, which is how we kept up with what they were going while they were gone.

We picked them up on Saturday morning, but I'm not sure they were ready to come home.  :)

Here's Sarah with her counselor and cabin mates.

 Here's Anna Grace with her counselor.

They loved every minute of Camp Lake Stephens.  Such a fun place!

{ Fun at the Spray Park }

Granna and I took the kids to the Spray Park in New Albany this afternoon.  We'd heard good things about it, but hadn't ever been over there before.  I don't know what took us so long.  The kids LOVED it!

There were all sorts of sprayers and splashers all over the place, but the kids pretty much spent the entire time going down the slide, hopping out of the water and heading up the steps again. 

 Harrison and Cameron had a ball.

 Emma Taylor and Lexie did too.   They were so lucky to have a gorgeous day to play!

If you haven't been over to the Spray Park, you should take your kids soon!  It's tons of fun and just $4 per child.  Wish we'd checked out this little gem a long time ago!

{ Baseball Pics }

Here are Harrison's baseball pictures for this year.

Here is is with his Park & Rec Team, the Papa John's A's.

This is this All-Star Team, the Saltillo Tigers.

We could sure use some better photographers, goodness!  Oh well, the memory of the fun days of baseball have been captured.  :)

{ Tubing! }

We met our friends up at Pickwick on Sunday afternoon for a little fun on the water.  Harrison went to spend the night with Quinn at the cabin on Saturday night, so we met him there.

The kids think it's awesome that they get to ride in the back of the pickup truck down to the boat dock.

Anna Grace was in more of a relaxing mode (like me!), but the rest of kids were dying to get on the tube!  We've been to the lake a few times this summer, but they hadn't had a chance to tube until now.

When will Harrison outgrow the goofy face?!

Here we are pulling out of the cove, going pretty slow.

And now the fun part, going fast!

I love Sarah's face in this one!

Before we went home, the girls wanted to jump off the rocks, so here they are in action.

Sarah got a bit of a running start from the tall part of the rocks! Woohoo!

And here's Emma Taylor.  I caught her just as she hit the water.  Harrison and Quinn (blue and green life jackets) are down in the water for moral support!  

It's hard to read in this picture, but someone painted "Summer 2014" in bright pink paint on the side of the rock.  Cute graffiti!  We SO enjoyed our day at the lake with our sweet friends!
