Beach BBQ & Bubbles

I feel like I haven’t posted much lately and we’re already half way through August. This summer is flying by! Our summer continues to be cooler and much more cloudy than we’d like, but we’ve managed to get outside and enjoy it regardless of the weather.

A few weekends ago we were invited to join a couple families in the ward at a nearby lake for a BBQ – again, we were amazed at the beautiful surroundings only 10 minutes from our home.

Even though the lake was ice cold Carly played in the water most of the evening with her friend. Jason also braved the cold water, but didn’t venture too far.

Abigail and Justin topped off the evening playing a little catch. We all had fun and it was a great opportunity to get to know some of the families in our new ward a little better.

Jason’s buddy gave him a bubble wand for his birthday and we finally tried it out last week. The kids had lots of fun chasing the huge bubbles across the backyard. They used up every little bottle of bubbles they could find.

The weather is such a bummer but it's great that you were able to get outside anyway. I guess we should be grateful that it's not raining! We have that same bubble wand and love it! It's pretty awesome!
