Early August

The kids had an extra long summer this year (the school district started school late this year and will extend further into May in 2026) so it was nice to have some bonus time!

Dave played in Etna's club championship again this year. My mom was up visiting so she got to see him play a bunch of gofl!

The guys and mom even got a round of golf in!

My garden was in tip top shape. Lots of pollinators and butterflies.

We bought sweet corn from one of Dave's friends and put up 6 dozen ears!

Mac Powell from the band Third Day came to the Eagles so we went to see him with Josh's parents. He put on a great show!

My sunflowers were so beautiful this year.

 

July

We jumped right back into life after we got back from California. Dave played in a worship night at the county fair with a couple other people from church.

Josh's parents bought a new camper, here are the boys in it-it's a baby camper!

The boys played in a junior/adult golf tourney. Dave and his partner Jim Hogan got second place in their age range and I think Ike and Josh got 2nd place as well.

The neighbor kids love coming over to hang out/pester our children. I love it!

I did lots of pickling! Unfortunately my cucumbers didn't do that well this year. Looking forward to next season already!

All the cousins went with grandma and grandpa to visit Aunt Em in Madison. They had a blast!
