It's been a whirlwind of a couple of weeks!! It started with Father's Day, then Abbi & Chad's arrival from Utah. (They are now permanent residents of the great state of Georgia!!) My sisters and I took a fabulous weekend get-away up to Biltmore Estate in Asheville, North Carolina.
The festivities started with a day in the North Georgia mountains. We picnicked, hiked, and played in the cool mountain water.
We marked the 4th of July with a festival-like celebration: swimming, games, relay races, wiffle ball, scrumptious food, fireworks, and a patriotic program. (During which I did not take a single picture.) :(Some of our other fun activities included a day swimming and skiing on the lake, roller-skating, going to see the movie "Night at the Museum," a trip to the Georgia Aquarium, and time splashing in the fountains at Centennial Olympic park. And in the midst of all of our revelry, my ward split and I have had the joy of making sure primary stays staffed and functional. (Stress.)
Usually I experience major post-family-reunion-blues, but I am determined to not let myself sink into that funk. We still have a few more weeks of summer vacation ahead of us and I'm looking forward to making them as memorable as I can.
Stay tuned..... I promise to be a better blogger in the future.

Yay! I have missed your posts.
We have had some seriously fun times together these past couple of weeks. Have you just soaked it all in and enjoyed it all? I think I have. These are the best of times!
How fun that you made it up to Asheville! I live in NC and I still haven't made it over there yet. Some day!
How fun, being with family is the best.
We had a most wonderful time! We are fighting off post-family reunion blues by remembering how fun it was to be together, to laugh and play and celebrate. Can't wait til we come back!
