Goodbye, Summer.

What a great summer this has been! Besides traveling to California for Disneyland, backpacking in the Sawtooth mountains, and camping as a family, here are a few other highlights of good summer times in Twin Falls.
summer harvest!

Darn spinach went to seed. Made a beautiful bouquet!
Spinach leaves should not generally be as big as your child's face.
Lyra experiencing the wonderful aroma of garden fresh carrots

SO much lettuce!
Our balcony became a small garden getaway thanks to Ryan's efforts 
moonlight and geraniums on the balcony
The girls with our friend, Ollie, enjoying a staged popsicle moment
We went through a short spell of nap protests which would result in the predicted 4pm crash wherever she landed.
new bunk beds! We made a nice trade with Tony and Donna and now Lisa no longer has to sleep on a mattress on the floor, which she is very pleased about.
new boots! 
Shoshone Falls outing when Matt and Andrea came to visit
Really loved our first summer with a teacher husband and daddy. Definite perk of his job. The girls were so sad to see him go back to school.
Bring on the new school year!
