This summer has flown by. In just 6 short days, miss Keaton goes back to school. Luckily, I have a few more weeks until Mallory starts preschool, but it will still be here before I know it!
It has been a good summer. I did horrible at blogging (obviously), but many memories were caught on film...here are a few...
In June, we decided the girls were old enough to enjoy the Archway by Kearney. After we took the tour, we did the human maze, and some hiking (they have a great trail there). It was such a fun day!
As usual, we had a wonderful 4th of July here in Blue Hill...it is always such a fun day. The kids played games in the park, then enjoyed the parade and fireworks afterwards at Carisa and Jeff's house...God bless America!!!
My cousin, Angela and her husband, Ed are music professionals in Arizona. In their offseason, they travel and perform at various churches (with their beautiful daughter, Cadence). They did 2 performances in Hastings, and were amazing.
This summer we had our Mackin Family Reunion at Panorama Lake in Iowa. We have these every 3 years and have a blast every time...this one was no different: 4 days full of fishing, playing, swimming, visiting, sweating (it was sooo hot and humid!), and of course, eating. We did have one hiccup...on the first night Keaton was jumping off a top bunk bed and hit a moving ceiling fan...off we went to get her 5 stitches...but the rest of the trip went off without a hitch!
And of course the summer was full of...
Playing with friends...
Eating ice cream...
Blowing bubbles...
Learning new things...
Popsicles...
Learning about and signing praises to God (via 2 Vacation Bible Schools)...
Feeding ducks...
Catching lightning bugs...
Meeting new precious babies (Keaton was so excited to go to Denver with me)...
Dancing...(Mally's first 'real' dance class!)
Picking 'flowers'...
What a great summer it has been...sad to see it go...
