First Day of School...but summer's not over yet!!

The boys went back to school yesterday, but that does not bring an end to our vacationing!! We LOVE summer and we LOVE vacations. We have had some awesome trips this summer visiting friends and family from coast to coast!! We spent a week in Kentucky, five days in Disneyland, a week at the Brown Family Ranch in Preston, several weeks with friends and family in Utah and camping & canoeing in Pennsylvania. But that is not all HOORAY!! We are pulling the kids out of school next week to spend a week in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. We plan to bike, surf, swim and beach it up with the Z-Naefs!! Let summer go on and on and on!!!!









Four Months, Four States, Four Lakes

This year will go down as the summer of Skiing 101. Between May and August the boys skied in Kentucky, Utah, Idaho and Pennsylvania. Me and Derek were able to do some slaloming and wake boarding too. Derek taught his niece and nephews to ski behind a wave runner in Idaho. We only had the boys trainer skis and the wave runner that trip. We were so desperate to ski that we put on the boys trainer skis. We must have looked like a circus act on those tiny skis behind the wave runner! Hopefully next summer we will have as many awesome boating opportunities and a slalom ski!
