Well, it's hard to believe that it's already September . . . it's sad really. Summer came and went way to fast this year. It seems like as I grew up summers weren't quite as exciting anymore because I'd either be working or going to school during summer months. But this summer was a little different . . . I'm not sure if it's because this is the first summer we've had a little one to play with outside, the fact that I wasn't working full time, or the freezing cold 6 months of winter that will rear its icy head in a couple of months, but this summer was pretty awesome!

We spent A LOT of time with family. We went boating, went to fun beaches, parks, played on the trampoline, BBQ'd, had bonfires, went to the state fair . . . the list could go on. It's hard to believe the sunny weather is coming to a close, and also hard to believe that we've been in MN for 5 months. I still get AZ homesick once in a while, but things are going well out here. Brandon just started his 2nd semester of school and is thoroughly enjoying it. Luckily his class schedule hasn't been too heavy, so he's been able to help out with Harlow a lot so I can go into the office and get some work done too! I've been super busy with work the past month, but that will slow waaaay down soon here and life will be a little less hectic with more time to play with my baby (who is getting very hard to keep up with now that she's walking ALL over the place, time to baby proof!)

Anyway, here are a few pictures to describe what we've been up to during this sunny season . . . . of course they're mainly of Harlow, pictures of her are always so much cuter than us!


ummm, Harlow looks way to old here? I can't BELIEVE she is going to be 1 in 2 weeks, too soon!



Brandon's goal was to jump the wake by the end of summer . . . he almost made it!

Harlow LOVES corn!!

I love everyone's expressions, watching how much Harlow loves these baby ducklings!

Jumping on the trampoline is another one of her favortite activities, we do this almost ever day!
