We got up yesterday morning and took of to our favorite haunts, THRIFT STORES! She found several cute summer tops. I found a very bright orange Asian figurine for the oriental garden by my pond, and we both loaded up on books. Then we went to eat a wonderful lunch and wait for her sister to get out of her classes at collage. Kalyn got out at 2:15, so we all head to the river to chill and cool off. Here's my girls on their colorful tubes in the river.
We of course included the Brat dog in on the fun. She may like the sprinkler in the backyard but she still is not a "jump in and swim in the big River" dog. She did go out for a few with me on my tube but was quite ready to get back to shore, thank you very much!
After our fun time at the river, we headed back home to wait on their brother to come out. He finally showed up and we ordered some pizza and sat out in the pond. It was so nice last night, no humidity and a nice breeze. I had to snap a pic of Kyle and Allison on the swing.
And another pic of the girls sitting on the bench in the pond!
I think they were listening to Brother telling a story, it must have been a interesting one!!!
Later on Daniel came home and the pizza man arrived and we spent the rest of the evening laughing and remembering stories from the past. It felt so good to have our "little chicks" back home in our nest.
I hope everyone is having as nice of week as I am!!!

Great Pictures! Nothing as fun as family time together!
I get to spend a few days at Lake Tahoe with my daughter Julie and her family!! Can't wait...post pixs when I get back!
I'm having a good week but nothing compared to yours!! How nice to have your kids there together. Love the photo of the girls in their tubes....they look so cute. And I'm envious that you have such a fun place so close by. I'm glad you're enjoying your summer. We've finally cooled of to the 90's!
Serious warm fuzzies happening here Beth. It's always so nice when the family is all together again.
Oh, I had fun coming with you. Yikes, swimming in a river! Ugh. I'm such a land lubber in that respect. Give me a pool any day! Brave woman is what you are.
I'm glad you are having such a good visit!
OH that water looks wonderful. So glad you are enjoying your summer!
How happy you all look, and what a wonderful family. Must be a GREAT week. (I had a great mail day when I found a package from YOU in my box last night -- but I'll email you on that!)
Have a great week!
