With our crazy summe, and my nice camera packed away forever, anything worthwhile was documented on my camera phone and through instagram.

Here are many of the randoms we did...

We went to the beach with my cousin who was in town, and my other cousin who lives in Portland.

 We played in our new front yard and soaked up the sun.

We love our new deck, and read lots of books back there.

We played in the water and went to our ward park days.

Merrick had his first haircut at an actual haircutting place. He enjoyed it and we still both loved each other after it was over. hehe

Berkleigh dressed up and sang on the front lawn.

 We slid down hills on cardboard boxes.

We played too much, and neglected the diaper changing.

Our new washer and dryer arrived!

We had some of our first playdates at our house.

We skated, biked and wore ourselves out.

 Biked and picked blackberries at Minto Brown Park.

Merrick found some kind of jaw.

We had little outdoor mani/pedi parties.

While Merrick serenaded us.

We played dress up and hiked to the top of the capitol.

We counted the seconds between the thunder and lightning.

 Found lots of bugs, played at our children's museum.

 Ate lots of treats and went to a carnival our Orthodontist friend threw. The unicorn is kind of their business mascot and these little ponies were in costume.

Went to the State Fair.

Had lazy mornings eating on the deck and tried lots of new hairstyles so Berkleigh wouldn't look so ragamuffin for school everyday.

 We ate outside a lot while the kitchen was being renovated, and celebrated dad on Father's Day with a new Father's Day tie.

 We drove a lot and had I had a great time catching moments like this in the rearview mirror.

Our summer was fun and exhausting.
