its summer.

We have skipped spring altogether, and summer is here. We have had some hot days and the kids can't get enough of the tiny inflatable pool.
whats going on ?

-went to Cincinnati to clean, clean, clean the rental house. I think we may have found some good people to rent it. And by good I mean will pay the rent and not be filthy beyond belief.

-was good and sick with some lovely throat issues. so fun.

-liv and ian got haircuts. Liv wanted to donate her hair. I even tried to halfway talk her out of it... but she was ready for a fresh look:) She looks older now, and that makes me sad.

-lincoln turned 6, got a sweet vintage pea picker bike. He is doing pretty good at riding it. We went on a family bike ride tonight for the first time.

-our ward was designated the hearing impaired ward for the area today...couldn't help but think of you maryirene.

-We got a canoe! Jonny has been looking and planning on this for a while, we got it out and oiled up the wood and the kids pretended to row. They are super excited to take it out, just waiting on the kids sized life jackets. It's light and we plan on walking across the street to the river for some fun!

and now for a ton of photos .....

The canoe is beautiful! And I just love how serious Lincoln looks sitting in the back there. Liv does look more grown-up. I kind of sad about the hair too, but I don't blame her for a cooler summer look.
Nora is way too cute and so is Ian with the haircut. And the bowtie.
I think Nora looks just like you.
