Soaking Up the Last of Summer

We tried to have as much fun as we could the last week or so of July and the beginning of August. I can't remember two months that have ever gone as fast as this past June and July. I blinked and  school is starting. (Yuck!)

To finish up our summer...

We love dinner at Cunningham's Creekside

Marshma and Papa took the boys to a movie so I spent an afternoon at the pool all by myself. It was wonderful!

The boys and I spent the day at Turkey Run. We rode bikes...

and played in the creek.

Luke was determined to catch a crayfish and was thrilled when he finally got one.

We spent one rainy morning at the Science Center...

We also went to Lake Cumberland...and were not prepared for the COLD morning weather!
Brrrr!

Because the water was over 20 degrees warmer than the air temperature, the boys had no problem sliding and jumping off the houseboat.

The houseboat was anchored up to an island, so Creed and I did a little exploring and made it all the way around.

Low 60s and windy the last weekend of July...what?!!

After lunch, the clouds passed and the weather was beautiful...thank goodness! Bring on the sun and warmer temps!

Grandma & Grandaddy

with all of their (10) grandchildren and (2) great-grandchildren

Caleb got in an evening ski run

and Luke got up on skis...but didn't stay up.

Luke also crashed on the way home.

Luke lost a second bottom tooth, and like the first, Caleb pulled it out for him.

We can cross Go to a RiverBats game off our bucket list!

Jackets in August...what in the world?!!

 (Although I must say, it was nice to sit at a baseball game in a sweatshirt instead of baking in the summer heat.)

Now we are organizing uniforms, buying supplies, and trying to move up bedtime. August 9th will be here before we know it. :(
