It's Summertime (almost!)

 

I missed posting last week but since it isn't officially summertime yet (we are still wrapping up school) then I guess that's ok.  HA!  This will be the last "unofficial" summertime post as week 1 of summer technically started yesterday.  I chose to post these on Tuesdays to give me time to update it after the weekend. Anyway . .. summer is knocking on the door for sure!! 

Over the past two weeks we celebrated my mom's 80th birthday, had a great Memorial Day with family, finally finished up school, participated in a Library teen activity, and more!  Not to mention the Father/Son Retreat and my fun Scrapbooking "retreat".  I'll share some photos below from all the fun!  

On Memorial Day we gathered at my mom's with my nephew and his family and we celebrated my mom's birthday as well.  She loves having family over!  
I always snap a photo of the oldest and youngest grandkids - my nephew is the oldest of all and Nate is the youngest.  Looking at this photo I do believe Joshua and Nate might be taller HA!  (One of these days I need to find all of the photos of the three of these guys through the years!) 
My mom's actual birthday was celebrated at our house with dinner, gifts, and dessert!  She made out like a bandit HA! 
She was protecting her dessert and candles.  In our house, no one technically blows out the candles but they breath hard and talk with ALOT of breath to try and blow them out while they are being lit.  Fun times!  

This past weekend Darryl, Joshua, and Nate attended a father/son retreat.
