At the end of June, the kids got to play in the river:
Carter turned 11 and celebrated with a sleepover party and then the "leaning tower of carrot cake":

This morning, Merlyn and Berkleigh left with my parents to go on vacation in Tennessee for a week.
All the kids had awesome report cards, and the three oldest have been going to summer rec Monday through Thursdays. Carter is starting two weeks of Robotics camp (a day camp) on Monday. Bryan and Myles have been playing box lacrosse two nights a week, and both boys have been going to play basketball with Bryan another two nights a week.
I finally planted a garden this year and have been trying to keep up with the weeding. I've also been slowly and steadily staining our porch. More pictures will be on the way. I'm not making any promises, but I will try to keep the blog more regular.
