Our big vacation has gotten most of the blog posts this summer, but we've been cramming many of our other usual summer activities into this abbreviated summer break! The kids go back to school in just 17 days!!!

| …and again! |
Remember how I raved on the
marketing genius of Coca Cola a little while back? Well, they got us again. Nathan found an "Ashley" bottle early in Coke's summer "Share a Coke with ___" campaign. We still have not found a "Nate" and haven't even looked for a "Racheal"--not even Coke could mass produce an "-eal". :)
We've had LOTS of cousin time this summer. Jeremiah has been here so long that he might have re-established residency. He spent 2 weeks in Arkansas by himself this summer, and it was a pleasure having him here. It's so easy to get lost just managing the chaos when there are 5, 9, or more kids running around. I'm glad to have spent a few days with these guys. Love you, J!
We worked in a trip to Professor Bowl while he was here. Micah and Lily joined us again, and we had a big water balloon fight one afternoon. If you need help tying water balloons, call Lily. She's a machine! We have played at least one game of Wahoo everyday that she's been here, and I can't tell you how many fashion shows that she, Ashley, (and sometimes Micah) have put on for us this summer. I will spare Micah the future embarrassment of his fashion show pics. ;)

So far it's been a great and crazy summer! I've already started buying back-to-school clothes and hope to get started on the school supplies this weekend.
