Sammi's Summer

So I thought I would share some of our photos from our Summer. These are some great ones from Sammi's adventurous summer.
Sammi joined the swim team. She didn't really like it much-but she did really well. She can now jump off the side of the pool and swim to the edge. Here she is practicing with the kick board, but it's the only one I had where her face is above the water.

We went boating at Bear Lake. We had a family reunion there--it was so much fun.

Of course we played in the water and the sun. Bear Lake is a wonderful place to play and have fun. The sand is great. You can see it is all over her.

This is just a silly picture of her. The kids were playing a pirate game and digging on the beach for treasure. Grandma and Aunt Janae made them all PJ's and buried them in the sand.
We took a day trip to Virginia City, MT. I loved these pictures of her. This one was them playing by a pond--and of course we can't play by a pond without throwing rocks in it---right?
There was a cool old shed there-so we naturally we had to take some pictures.

Sammi turned 7 in July. You can tell I didn't make that cake. I meant to though. We had a little party with just us and her. Wow---where did all that time go? I really wish she was 1 again.

Regardless, she had a great time. I am sad summer is over. School starts on Thursday :(
We do have a new school to go to, so the kids are excited about that. I myself wish I had them home for 3 more months.

I still can't believe Samantha is 7. How on earth did that happen?? I remember when you were pregnant with her, and it doesn't seem like that long ago! She's beautiful. :)

What a great summer. Belated Happy Birthday greetings Sammy and congrats on doing so well in swimming. I love these cute pictures of her and wished to have such a sweet little girl too. Summer is not over in Germany yet, next weeks will be hot and sunny, like the last month. So we enjoy going swimming nearly every day.
