We are really enjoying our Summer! It seems like we have something fun planned every week for the next 2 months. These past few weeks we:
went to Uncle Claire and Aunt Tam's farm to see their beautiful garden...

wandered around the coolest farmyard around and wished just a little that I lived there...

hung out by the chicken coup...

took a stroll to the pond...

and swung on an authentic farmyard swing...

spent time with some of the most down to Earth people...

were pulled in a carriage by little miss Ritz...

and played with some of our favorite people...

Farms are seriously the best!
Then we decided we had better get going on our food storage...
so Jon built these heavy duty shelves (much cheaper than the metal ones:))


My sister, JaNae, understands my need to have my food storage aligned just like the canned foods aisle at Smiths...

Then Grey finally learned how to go down the stairs, but still makes Mommy nervous...
Then we had our Packer Family Reunion and had fun seeing our family again...

and stopped to take a picture with 2 of my most favorite people, oh and the 2 cute boys, too!...

Then Hunter found a new interest...
Dragonflies

and spends the majority of his day catching a family of them that he named Daddy, Mommy, Hunter, Jaina and Grey...

then we did the good ole stand by's at home...

and had a BBQ by the world's greatest grill master...

the secret to his delicious burgers...
(a large pat of garlic herb butter in the middle of the patty)

It was so good, we could have had a heart attack after consuming so much grease.
There is still so much more fun to come!! We hope you all have a fabulous Summer, too!
