So much to capture this summer since it’s the last one… boo hoo… are you tired of hearing that? Or maybe I’m just saying it in my head two thousand times a day ??!!
Zach reconnected this summer to another cutie in the picture (grade 1??) and she sent him it:
Always thinking: this is the last game for Zach… (it was the last day time one. Sigh):
His old coach, Andy, happened to be at the game. Andy coached Zach for years and was a great influence in Zach’s life:
I went to a Brain injury awareness event and the CN Tower was sporting the blue and green for brain injury!
Zandra came with me to the Corey Hart concert. My 13 year old heart dream come true! It was an awesome concert! He’s really a stellar guy!
Some of Rob’s birthday celebrations: walk in Brickworks and lunch, picnic dinner, cake…
And then Father’s Day! Headed to exotic car show:
Exam time:
Schwarma poutine to celebrate high school is DONE
Mission prep throughout the weeks – washing shirts!
Zach went to visit Ti Tia with his friend Leah (this is where they met when they were 1! Ti Tia was like a grandmother to the boys!) I love how she still has pictures of them up! Ti Ti Tony passed away two years ago:(
Random hanging with me :
Amazon comes daily with mission supplies! You’d think with Rob working there, there was a discount! And there is! With one order that was almost $800(?!?) , he got a discount of $1.75!!!! I kid you not!!!
Seminary graduation (all 4 years for Zach and Zandra and year 2 for Josh!) :
Not sure if I posted this one yet – headed out to get ready for prom:
Sam is off to service corps camp!
We took these two out for a high school graduation celebration dinner at the Bier Markt – reminiscent of their 15 trip!
Catching up on sleep
I can’t believe I’m posting some of these pictures… Zach’s room… the plan was/is to pull everything out and divide it into Give away, keep forever, ready to take to BYU, ready to take to mission. But man, is it messy. He’s working hard here …
Random shot he sent me:
Rachael came back from France and we went shopping. These girls liked trying on the silly dresses:
Old and tired: (but I think we look more old and tired than we actually are! lol)
Church back scratches for Zach… for the last time, lol. Boo.
Reggie love
Trying to squeeze in too much summer fun – needs to crash!
Collecting my Christmas present of a long walk …
His Dad is letting him use the Jeep for a good part of the summer :
Walks with Reggie:
My Bff came to town and we had a great night:
Heading to the temple for Zach’s mission prep photoshoot. Rachael is going on a mission to Thailand 3 weeks after Zach so she joined us for some photos (I hired her amazing photographer sister to do Zach’s mission photos). Here are some background photos:
We went to see Toy Story 4 for Zach’s Birthday! The boys grew up in Toy Story!
A little tennis too:
I think this is how josh spends a good part of his summer, lol:
More cleaning/packing. Doesn’t seem to be getting anywhere (but it is…)
Boys went to San Fran with their Dad for the weekend and sent me these:
We found a fish place we like:)
While boys were in San Fran with their Dad, and Sam was in Minnesota with his mom for a soccer tournament, we went to Palmyra to see the pageant with Zandra. We had a great lunch and shop at Sauders and enjoyed the pageant and our sketchy hotel, lol:
We visited Grammie on our way home:
So Josh and his buddy decided to shave their heads:
It’s officially real:
This is the last night time game for Zach:
Went for a night Brickworks walk with some friends:
Leah joined us for dinner one night and we headed to Dairy Queen after:
Even more real.
(I forgot to get a picture of going to the consulate for the French visa…)
Coming home from a friend’s farewell. He already looks like s missionary!
After Family night tickles with these two:
Helping new neighbor from our ward move in:
Shopping with Josh bcs he’s grown so much!
City walks:
Which ones?
That’s a wrap bringing us to August!
