This summer has been a flurry of activity in our family. The new Marine park opened and is pretty close to our house. We go their a lot. The playground equipment is way cool and the beach is pretty nice. I also was offered a job a week after school let out at a school in Forest Lake. I'll be teaching 6th Grade at North Lakes Academy in Forest Lake. The school is building a new school in Wyoming so this year is going to be crazy. I'll be at Faith Luthern for the year and in the new school next year. I can't believe we're building a house and I'm starting a new job. Driving 6 miles to work will be a definite plus! We're planning on being in the house by Thanksgiving. I'm hoping for Halloween.
We took an evening pontoon cruise on Forest Lake and ate dinner. This one is Ava and Aunty Bee snuggling during our three hour tour.
4th of July weeked, Chad took a break from the house and accompanied the family to the cabin for the weekend. Ava is making her usual funny face while sitting with Grandma Reen on the pontoon. It wound up being a great weekend and a well deserved break for all of us. 
Lydia and Chad went tubing together. Lydia's courage is growing more and more each day. By the end of the weekend, she was tubing by herself and swimming like a crazy lady. We all decided to jump off the pontoon in the middle of the lake and cool off. The girls are really comfortable with their life jackets and will swim anywear we let them. 
As usual, the fireworks were a pleanty in Cumberland over the 4th of July weekend. The girls each got their own 3D fireworks sunglasses for viewing the shows in the evening. Here they are sporting their matching 4th of July shirts, (thanks to grandma) and their glasses. 
Lydia and Ava had fun entertaining Grandma Hazel at our cousins wedding. As usual, everyone had a blast!
