Summer Fun

Does it ever seem like you long for the lazy days of summer and then summer flies by and you haven't taken any lazy days? I remember blogging about enjoying summer and I'll admit I have enjoyed summer however; with very few lazy days. One area where I have really changed is making a CHOICE to just enjoy! In the past I would have been stressed out because my house wasn't clean, we've lived out of a suitcase all summer, and until this past Saturday I felt like my landscaping was becoming an overgrown mess! Rather than using all of my time and energy being a stressed wife and mom I've decided to just go with the flow and enjoy! Yes...my hanging plant was just thrown away because it was completely wilted and Anderson's feet turned black from crawling on my floors when I came home from Illinois but...I've had fun! This summer has been great and I can't wait for our very last fling...family vacation (Mark, Me and Anderson) next week. Hope you've had a great summer too! Here are a few pictures of places we've been!

In the back yard with daddy!

Hanging out at Indian Lake with my awesome mom!
I'm writing so I can say whatever I want!

Anderson and his buddy Ryland working on their
tan (and playing in the sand) at Indian Lake!



Discovering new things at MSU gardens!



Spent the morning with Lindsay and super cute Kyler!

Ice Cream with Auntie K in Illinois!

Anderson sat in his first bulldozer (at least I think that's what this is!)
I even climbed up there in my good jeans and flip flops!
