SUMMER FUN!




Naqi and Hada at Cahaba River
Sit-ups at the pool? No thanks.
                           
      What a summer! The mushroom business was a success and the markets were great. We met lots of new people and made new friends. We also had our nieces come and stay with us. It was so much fun. We took them skating, to the river, the park, and the pool in Montevallo. It was a busy summer but we made some great memories. Now,  I think I'm ready to start school.  Did I just say that?  And did I mention I homeschool our 12 year old son? He will be in 8th grade this year. I'm sure it will be challenging. I do look forward to the routine a school schedule brings.

Papa and Mema (thats my Dad and Mom) took the youngest grandkids to the science center in Birmingham.

This is what I walked into 5 minutes after they got home from the Science Center.
I think we have a pooped pop.

 These are the Grand kids that went to Science Center. Aren't they cute?

Aiden

This Is Aiden. He is one of Cian's friends. We met him on the Ymca soccer team last year. He has 2  brothers, Ashton 11 and Andrew 9. Their Dad is Couch JJ. He coaches their soccer team. Their Mom is Suzie. Suzie is also a homeschool mom. We had a lot of fun with them over the summer and made lots of sweet memories.

 These are Aiden's younger brothers at the skating rink. This was Moriah's first time on skates. She did very well.



This is Naqah my eldest niece. She came down for a visit one weekend. We decided to play clue. I almost won but the fun-guy, the one I call honey stole my accusation. Well... stole might be to hard a word. Hmm... no, stole is exactly what he did.








  

Summer was a real blast! Now it is time for schedules and lesson plans. I know that sounds boring, but it is really what you make of it, and I plan to make it fun. After all I am married to the fun guy. One last thing we will be at Pepper Place 2 more times this year before the season is finished for us and the mushrooms go to sleep. I also will be adding more recipes in my next post.
