Summer activities so far...

Here's some of the things we've been up to this summer. We went to Palmyra, NY a few weeks ago and stopped in Niagara Falls on the way there.
We also went to the Sacred Grove...
The Palmyra Temple...
and Hill Cumorah.
We had lots of fun goofing around and seeing all the sights.
We also went to Arboretum recently. Here's Abbie smelling the flowers...

With a friend looking over the fence. I like how Abbie has her hands in her pockets. It's like she's thinking "So, what's up?"

Leah acting shy...
There's my smiley girl!
Walking through the peony garden.Lastly, we went to the zoo last weekend. It was pretty hot the first couple of hours, rained on us halfway through the day, and was cold by the end. We had fun, though, looking at the elephants...
Riding the carousel...
Watching the polar bears swim (and touching their big sharp claws).
It was a fun day but we were definitely ready to go home towards the end.

CUTE, CUTE, CUTE!!! Love it! So glad you succumbed to the blogging world--now I can keep better track of you and your cute girls! And by the way...whoever thought that after 5 1/2 years you'd STILL be living in Michigan!?! Then again, I AM living overseas! It's a far cry from Rexburg for both of us, huh! :o)

Welcome to the wonderful world of blogging! Yours is fantastic! And I'm feeling the need now, after viewing your amazing layout to try and get some scrapbooking of my own done... We'll see how it goes! Love ya!

I love all the cute pictures - and the hillbilly one at the bottom? Let's just say WOW. Have I ever seen that before? Great job and I'm glad you're a blogger!
