 We had August Family Night with Chris's family:

The 5 seniors!

We attended and worked at the Gateway Woods auction:

Rainbow over the boys' first football scrimmage:

More rainbows!

Daniel and Shana bought a house that needs a lot of work, so we've been helping them fix it up. 

Ripping off wallpaper:

Tearing out walls:

Putting in a beam to make a wider doorway:

Elli, Malia, and Bolu surprised Quintin with a last-day-of-summer trip to a Cincinnati Reds game! To say he was excited is an understatement!

I met some some friends from high school for dinner recently. It was good to catch up!

Back to School!

 It's the last first day of school for Jalen and Jordan (and their friend Emmet.) How did we get here so quickly?! They are seniors at Paulding this year, and Quintin is a 5th grader at Oakwood! Have a great year, guys!

Guess Who's 25?!

 A very HAPPY BIRTHDAY to our favorite daughter-in-law! Love you, Trinity! Hope you have a wonderful day!

July...

 

Rare sighting of a Luna moth:

J and J went to Youth Day:

Lots of swimming:

I love all the Queen Anne's Lace growing in the field beside our house!

Shi got glasses!

The epitome of laziness:

We spent some time with the kids at Pine House:

Quintin enjoyed football camp:

The football team has been busy helping out around town:

Beautiful sunsets:

Pop-a-sicles:

After a long week, my hubby made me a dinner of various appetizers, steak, salmon, and asparagus:

Fun in the park with Shi:

She likes her new Minnie raincoat I got her:

Chris and I enjoyed a date day at a metropark in Toledo:
