These
September days have been full of “Fall chatter” because everyone, including
myself are excited about them!! However, you blog readers missed nearly all of
our summer, so I’m giving you a sneak peek into a fun weekend we had at the
beginning of August this year.
Our
family has been developing a relationship with some neat friends from church,
and we have found our families to be similar in some ways. They have two boys,
18 and 16, that my siblings and I have had the privilege of spending more time
with outside of youth group.
One
Friday in early August we decided to try a Mexican ice cream shop in town that
most of us had heard about. It turned out to be delicious! I found the ice
cream to be rich and creamy, especially the vanilla and chocolate flavors! They
had other treats there too, including frozen chocolate-covered bananas and strawberries.
After
we ate our treats, we needed to do something else. J
So after buying a few groceries for our parents, we went to the park. (Yes, teenagers
at the park. Why not?:-)
This
park has huge monkey bars, swings, a climbing rock, and a walking trail.
We
found a water hole to play in….and get wet in.
We
ended up inviting the boys to come over for dinner, so they joined us for our
traditional Friday-pizza-movie-night. THEN their
Dad must’ve thought, “We might as well invite them out to the lake tomorrow,”
so that’s what he did! Yay! J
The
next day was a beautiful afternoon for swimming, tubing, and water skiing! Some
of the experiences were new for me, like tubing, and I’m thankful that my first
time could be with my family and these friends!

so much to the B family for this memorable weekend of our summer!
