Summer is Not Over



















Our friends in Belgrade decided to put the Clubhouse up for sale this year.  The kids were way more bummed than I thought they would be, so when the opportunity to rent a camp on Clearwater Lake in Industry, we jumped at the chance. It couldn't have worked out better. We had mid summer gorgeous weather!  The camp was perfect for our family, all of the outdoor fun activities we needed, and we were able to park our boat right at the dock!

We thoroughly enjoyed relaxing for this final week of summer!  There were some exciting times like when the boat died in the middle of the lake and when we had a terrible thunderstorm complete with hail (Obviously all while Gabe was working). But most of the visit was spent kayaking, paddle boarding, watching the kids play "king of the float" endlessly, playing card games, and really just relaxing... this was all while everyone else was starting school around us.  Maybe we will start school next week if the weather stops being so nice;)

Hillary and Cody get Married!










My cousin/sibling, Hillary got married this past weekend and we couldn't have been more thrilled to be a part of the festivities!

The night before the wedding we all finally got to meet and cuddle the newest member of the Glidden Family: Elliott Thomas! The kids are obviously in love and couldn't stop talking about holding him.

On Saturday morning before the wedding Gabe took the kids to visit with Grampy Grampy who was up visiting from Florida.  They were excited to play with other cousins and to get out in the tube.

The wedding was beautiful. We all got to hangout and visit with family we don't see often enough. We ended the night with fireworks and drove home late at night capping off an awesome weekend.

VBS and Track Camp












Maybe in some subconscious effort to get back into the swing of school year chaos we did vacation bible school, finished track camp, and attending a special wedding all in one week.  We had a ton of fun, but are all ready for some relaxing to finish out the summer.
