August Happenings

A lot has been going on this month... here's a photo snipit of what we've been doing....


We've been swimming. A lot. We love our pool and consider it one of the best investments we have made since having kids!



The big Solar Eclipse was a big deal around here... as it was passing right thru our fine state. We had 99% totality here.. and is was a fun experience for sure!


Practicing using our protective glasses the night before. 

We met up with friends at the middle school to watch in the large open field there. 


Friends Ken and JB



Celebratory snacks! :)

Thankful for my friend Katie!
Toasting the eclipse with friends...



We had a "boys day/girls day". Doug and Matthew went the Woodburn Dragstrip to look at and watch cool cars race, and Evelyn and I went to lunch and went shopping. We all had a lovely time!



We played at parks....



Had sleepovers with friends....

Celebrated Doug on his birthday...


Had fun with long time friends....





...and Matthew started football!! He has wanted to play FOREVER. Since this is the last year he can play non-contact flag football, we signed him up. Oh, my goodness he is SO excited!

Waiting for uniforms and photos...

He's going to be playing with three of his great buddies.... so thankful for that!


Happy Boy!
Why, yes..Matthew IS the tallest kid playing flag! :) 

It was a busy but super fun month for sure!!
