WE TOTALLY FOUND THE DROIDS WE WERE LOOKING FOR AND A FEW OTHER COOL THINGS...

SUMMER HAS ENDED

I can't decide if I was really bad about blogging or
if we just did a lot of cool stuff.
Like:

Playdates
Sully and Coco invade the Build A Bear drawer

Hiking Arabia Mountain with Eli Parties
Matthew's 6th! Some nice grownup ones, too. Camping
Troy, Tiff, and I conquered a cliff, a river, and sleeping in a slow cooker. Woot! Camps
Harrison and Carolyn at Glisson

We survived Bert Adams! I shot a muzzleloader!

Concerts
Serj Tankian with the ASO

The Music of Queen with ASO

More like Tired Punkins with the ASO

Cousins

Rylee came for Lego, Therafun, and the pool!

and a new cousin!

GEM MINING

After all the fun with CMU Wes, we hit the mines with Uncle Pat... bringing back the buckets of pay dirt...
the goods.

guy telling us what was what... wish we could remember...

They rented a cute little house in the mountains. We need one of these. *hint*hint*

SCALLOPING, PRONOUNCED SCOLLOPING

We went to visit CMU Wes and Emilee to camp and do a little scalloping. It was a very exciting trip. Sully learned how to ride a bike! in his pajamas...
on the boat.

watching Pop-Pop take off his t-shirt without removing his goggles and snorkel. should we help or take pictures? yep. take pictures...

looking for the blue eyes...

we found a few. I think Sully is wondering why we would want to eat these...

we had enough for scallops and grits for breakfast the next morning. yum.

we also went to visit Aunt Joyce in Smyrna...

it was really cool.

then out to dinner...

back to the campground for some Toot & Otto...

then CMUW's IPhone for some more toots...

will potty humor ever get old??

probably not.
