Summer Fun- July

We have been having so much summer fun, I just haven't taken the time to post it all. I am truly enjoying this time with my kids. It has been wonderful.

Maddi had her first teeth cleaning at the dentist.

This one is Audrey.

 Kimee got some bad news, that she had to have two teeth extracted. I was NOT happy about that.

 Yummy, yummy corn on the cob. Only better when it's from our own garden.

And lots of time spent picking, making, and delivering raspberry jam.

Kimee had lots of fun making jam. 

She was able to do almost all of the steps with very little help from me.

This was one days worth. We did four batches this day. 

We did about 12 batches of jam total, each yielding between 3-4 pints. Plus we made raspberry shakes, lemonade, and even sold a gallon of raspberries that we picked but didn't have time to do anything with.

We had a candy stand again this summer. This year we did it every Wednesday in July. We had a really good turnout the 1st and 3rd weeks, and the others were a little slower. Thanks a million to everyone who came. It was really fun for us and hopefully for everyone else too.

 One more round of swimming lessons. Kimee and Audrey are both getting pretty good. Maddi can't wait to do them next year.
