July already!

 

We love summer time!!!!  July is already here and it's been a hot summer but with many thunderstorms to water the lawns and gardens!  We had a lightning strike and it blew out the internet, central vac and some other things here at home.  We are grateful nothing started on fire and we are safe!!!!  Thunderstorms are not a favorite of ours but it sure helps the corn to grow tall and the rains keep us hydrated outside!

The newly weds are back from their honeymoon and we went to their home to open up wedding gifts!  They are so blessed and loved!

July 4th was such a fun time to celebrate our freedom and our nation!  Lititz put on another wild firework show!!!!  

Just having a good time at the park before the fireworks begin!

We had a cousins day at a nearby pond and it such a warm day to swim!  All these dear children are special and did great in the water!

My dad stopped in and was showing the boys how to skip rocks.

Some of the children loved the two diving boards!  Others swam in the area where they could reach!

Summer days of swimming and staying cool are great!  Thanks to Mim for planning this outing!
