Summer to Remember

This summer was filled with lots of accidents, family fun, and just hanging out. At the end of May we got our miniature horse back from being trained. The kids had a blast and really enjoyed riding him, Joey was a natural. Until a police car flew by with the sirens on spooking the horse, taking Joey for a wild ride. He fell off into a post, scraped up his head and broke his wrist making him spend the night in the children's hospital.

He was so excited to get his cast he never wanted to take it off.

Soon after this we left for our family reunion in Ohio. The kids got to meet up Grandma, Grandpa, Uncle Aaron and got to meet their "great" cousins. Believe me these kids are great in more than one way. :)

Joey and Aubrey had a blast with Gabby and Brad!
We always have a lot of fun visiting with our relatives out in Ohio, eating good good food and playing games. Although we only see each other once every couple of years it's amazing how well things just mesh. Our last night there we were having a dance party in the camper and things got out of hand. lol Or Wyatt is just clumsy.

After the reunion Bryant headed home while the kids and I headed back out to PA with Mom and Dad. We ended up spending almost a month out there. I always enjoy heading back home and just relaxing. I must admit though, I am pretty selfish with my time and it is really hard for me to do anything but spend time with my family. Many days were spent by the pool, picking veggies from the garden, singing and dancing in the rain and just letting lose. Every minute is just "SPECIAL", kinda reminds me of the days I spent and the park feeding the animals with my Grandpa. There is no need to entertain or talk just enjoy each others company.
 
Dancing in the rain then enjoying the rainbow.
Racing and boxing

Aubrey didn't make it through the show, and the boys thought it was a to play.
Thanks the Loski's we were able to go to the Gettysburg Reenactment.
This year Grandpa taught Joey how to swim. The kid is like a fish!

The summer always goes by too fast. It was fun to get to see you guys out in PA for the week we were both there.

Your kids look like they had a lot of fun this summer. Thanks for posting! Someday when I have some down time I will call again and hopefully stop the phone tag that's been going on! Enjoy fall! (I see that Wyatt's got a really cool birthday this year! 10-10-10! Super cool. Does that mean he gets to be 10 times the handfull as a two year old?)
