Fun in July

Once a gain as it does every year, summer is flying by too quickly!  Tomorrow is August 1st?!  We have been keeping busy playing and working.  I am literally exhausted so this post will be short...  The pictures can do the talking and I promise I will be eloquent in my next post...  Hahaha!  Visiting parks in the area with friends, enjoying Lake Fair, attending the Riddell Family Reunion, Uncle Aaron's birthday, and my personal favorite, going on many walks to get my butt into shape are a few of the many things we've been up to this month! 

We visited Percival Landing Park in Olympia and Brooklyn swung on the bid kids swing by herself! 

My mom and I went for a walk around Capital Lake and up to the market with the kids during Lakefair.  It was beautiful! 

The Riddell Family Reunion was in Auburn at Uncle Bob's.  The kids had a blast, especially Lincoln he was assistant rock salesman.  This is the second Riddell Reunion (well recent reunion) and I realize that I really don't know very many people on my dad's side! Better get to studying that family tree he has! 

The Rock Salesmen hard at work!

Brooklyn and Grandma Bev :-)

I have been doing a lot of walking this summer and it feels soooo good to get my butt back into shape!!!  I am really going to miss the opportunity to walk nearly every day when school starts up again.  This walk was at Millersylvania with the kids, my mom, grandma, and aunt.  It's a beautiful place to walk and it is just a few minutes down the road from my new house! 

 

My brother turned 26 and we celebrated with lunch at Red Robin.  It was great to see him as I don't see him enough!!!  

For the past few summers a group of co-workers and myself get together and walk on Wednesday mornings.  This is what inspired me to get my butt in gear!  This was our crew last week.  We were down in our adult numbers, but as you can see the kid numbers were up!
