This post is for my mom. She mentioned that I posted what we did at the beginning of summer and at the end of summer, but that I totally left out the rest. Honestly, I have no recollection of the middle. I'm sure it happened, and I'm mostly sure I was part of it....but that's about it.
So here's what I do remember (thanks for pictures and other people's blogs to borrow pictures from)
We had a fun family reunion with Derrick's family. It was over the 4th of July, and we really enjoyed ourselves, but I forgot to pull out the camera. So, I'll be borrowing pics from my mother in law. (thanks Ruth!)
This is the bunch of us. I think it's funny that all of the tall Swaner guys married short girls. I guess they needed us to balance them out (in more ways than one!).
This is Derrick and his dad. I like this picture.
If you look back through my blog far enough, you'll see multiple pictures of these 2 little girls in this very same pose. They don't get to see each other very often, but every time they do, they pose for the same picture. This is Myah and her cousin Abby. I wish Kira would have been in it with them. 3 cute girlie cousins.
Other than that, I kept the kids home and made them clean and mow and babysit all summer long! haha (although that's probably what they would tell you!)
Really, it was a quick and fun summer. And if we sum it all up.....
Tannon avoided way too many pictures. Such a handsome kid. Must take more pictures of him....
Skyler....developed a bit of a six pack? What's up with that? And how is that fair? Do you even know how many crunches I do every day??? Must be all those bon-bons I eat all day.
Myah never ever missed a photo-op. She'll jump into any picture. I rubbed my feet in the sand. And I thought of my mom. The Moser girls love to sit on the beach and rub our feet in the sand and chat for hours and hours and hours. And we always comment on how the sand is kind of giving us a nice little pedicure. So I took this picture just for you, mom.
We ate popsicles
and fished
and camped
and hiked
and backpacked
and cavedand swam
and played with cousins
and visited the emergency room (what would summer be without it???)
and tried to catch the sweet 'happy moments' on camera!
and some of us never, ever missed another photo op....
And there you have it! So long, summer 2010!!! (and I really wouldn't mind if you could manage to come a little earlier next year and maybe even stay a little longer.)
