Summer Fun

     We have already started our summer fun for 2012.  Even though there are several weeks until the official start of summer the temps are in the 90s and the fun has begun!!

We've been picnicking, and going to the fountains, cardboard sledding and eating tons of ice cream!

 In fact, we are headed to the pool after I finish this post.  This summer we have plans to go to soccer camp,  and help at VBS, take a trip to Virginia, and in September head to the beach.  This is going to be a GREAT summer!

     Here are some pictures from our latest adventures.

Last Friday night's picnic...fried chicken, potato salad, baked beans and watermelon!

Clare LOVES watermelon!

The night ended with a storm.  We loved it!

This is right next to where we played.

Our cardboard hill!

Breaking down the boxes.

 

Look at Mrs. Rogers' shirt!  Unlike my mother, she was not afraid to go down on her stomach.

  Before living in Chattanooga I had never heard of cardboard sledding but boy is it fun!  The further south we move the more hillbilly fun we find!  You may not be able to tell but the hill we were on is steep!...it was a blast!  We took a picnic downtown and spent several hours there.  Everyone enjoyed the fun, even Clare.

     After sliding down the hill we went out for ice cream and then headed over to the park to play soccer.

Proud sponsors of our summer fun!

  I love taking a soccer ball to the park in downtown Chattanooga.  Every time we go we always have people asking us if they can play too.  Yesterday we had 12+ people playing at one time.  It was GREAT!
I love spending time with my family and friends.  I love warm (hot) weather, picnics, and pool days, and soccer and ice cream and...

   
     I am looking forward to this summer.  It is going to be the best one yet!


Off to the pool!!!!!!!!!!!!
