Summer Extravaganza!

This is a summary of summer 2013... in pictures! It was a great summer. We were outside A LOT, either at the park, on walks, in the backyard or whatever. We got to go on bike rides and watch movies and just do tons of fun things as a family.  

Here are ALL the pictures!

Seeing Despicable Me 2 in the theater

We were able to take my childhood best friend, Ashley Larson, who was serving her mission out here in Kirtland, out to lunch. So fun to see her throughout her mission!

Potty trained!!! EASY PEEZY! Yay!
Grant was a great potty trainee. It was the normal struggles for about 3 days and then he was GREAT! I hope all my kids are this easy(although I probably just jinxed myself (; )

Fun family bike rides in the Metro Parks! We love our new bike trailer for the kids and are excited to use it for many summers to come!

Going on an impromtu swim in Lake Erie... The Stelter boys were laughing hysterically when a few minutes later, Grant decided to go skinny dipping!

A friend of ours gave Grant this awesome Cleveland Indians hat. He loves it!

Sleepy dad and Grant. They were both out in seconds

Whenever dad is home, he is bombarded by little boys competing for his time. They all love it and I love seeing them together.

Such a fun summer! Completely packed with great little adventures as a family. Woohoo!
