July 2009

I am excited to post July!  It's just that time of year when I am craving the warmth of summer!  There are a ton of pictures from July so we better get started:
Starting off the summer we had a ton of fruit flies; my aunt and uncle suggested making this fruit fly trap.  You role a 8.5x11 sheet of paper with one end really really small.  Pour apple cider vinegar in the bottom; not too much.  The fruit flies will fly in to drink the vinegar and not be able to get out.  It worked fantastic!!
The car that we have had the longest turned to 200,000 miles and Josh had to take a picture when it turned, while he was driving!  He missed it by a tiny bit. :)
This is only the beginning!! She loves getting into my make-up bag!

Mia's cousin is about 10 weeks younger than her and they are great friends


Jason had the best time with frogs this summer.  Here they found a frog and put it in a glass vase
Mia waiting to go boating with Grandpa and Grandma
Argghhhh! A pirate!
Another pirate!
Part of our vacation with the Grandparents was going to a indoor waterpark.  Jason had a ton of fun!  Here is Mia with her aunt
Here are some of the girls.  I was trying to get Mia to look and she didn't look at the camera all day that day.
Josh in front of the cabin we stayed in; it was really nice.
Grandpa at his post: grillin.
Mia and her other aunt taking a little break from all the fun

Josh's summer time fun: wakeboarding!

Mia and her another aunt
Josh and I actually ventured out of the boat to do a little tubing!  We hadn't done that for awhile.
We went doubles with Josh's sister and her husband
One of Mia's aunts took this while we were on the tubes
Having fun even though we're old :)
Mia and another aunt  (there is 4 on this side)
Josh's uncle and aunt brought their new boat; Josh had a great time wakeboarding with the rope up high.

Mia and Daddy; all these Mia pictures makes me wonder: where is Jason?
The whole family
We got to go back to Fairmont for a little bit and see some friends

We got to go to a wedding this summer and Jason and Mia had a blast dancing.  Not only did they have a blast, they couldn't help being the center of attention
Josh and I and his childhood friend and his wife.  They just had their first child!
Family picnic
Footprints in the sand

This next picture is one of my absolute favorites of all time!!

This is the first cut of the first ceiling fan; this guy is good!
And if you made it all the way through this I applaud you!! Wow!
