We made it through a hot hot summer ...
but feeling a break in the weather now!
It rarely reaches 100 degrees😉
We celebrated 4th of July at Nelson’s ... all 14 of us!
We ate yummy picnic food, had fireworks in the backyard,
then walked to their park to watch fireworks!
Fun, Fun!!
We also celebrated Tim’s 70th Birthday!
Seems like we just celebrated his 40th!!
We drove to LA in July to see James and Beka!
It was so great to see them and their new apartments.
They treated dad (and I) with tickets to the Hollywood Bowl
to see a Frank Sinatra tribute show!
We packed a picnic and had a great time.
It was wonderful seeing the kids, even for a short visit!
We drove up to Modesto to see Mel, too!
So great to catch up with her and the
family who were in town!
When we got home we were surprised with a yard disaster!
That day we had the biggest rainstorm in our 35 yrs here!
Our neighbors said it was 4 1/2” in 45 min!
So we spent the rest of the summer cleaning up and
spreading 15 tons of gravel
(in the early morning before the heat).
The front yard is done...just have to fix the backyard!
Owen came for 2 nights for his 13th Birthday!
We had fun eating good food, playing games, going
out and working in the yard!
He was determined to help his grammy and papa!
The Nelson’s made the hard decision to move to San Antonio.
Jonah got a great job, so they spent the summer packing!
We all got together at the Macs for a fun hangout!
We’re sure going to miss them but will have to visit soon.
Grammy and Papa weren’t much help with the hard
work, but the Macs sure were!
From Arizona to Texas!!
Their rental house and lovely backyard...
Tim and I kept busy all summer building the
“HeARTsEncounter” Website.
It’s not public yet, but for the few that read this ...
you can have a preview.
Let me know your thoughts!
