And then it was August...

We survived June and July and then August came and with it were visits from Grandparents and cousins galore. We had a great time celebrating the 24th of July and loved the help from family starting on the framing in our very un-finished basement. Usually that meant Gi and Grant or Gun got to stay home and work while I took the other half and the kids to our dear friends pool to play in the sun. The kids have all earned their swim badges this summer, its been a great time and even little Aly has survived a few too many hours in the shade of the pool's umberella table.
