And....Summer Continues

Summer is my favorite time of the year.  I love relaxed schedules and no homework and of course the warm weather.  This years HOT weather has been a bit much though.  100+ degrees most days...wow! Our fun continues in the midst of the heat.  The braves game with friends and my dad was a blast.  Our seats were not wonderful, but our tickets were fundraiser tickets sold by Cartersville Baseball.  We were high up but surrounded by friends which makes for a fun evening.  I think my dad even enjoyed hanging out with all of us.  Theirs nothing better than a baseball game preceded by dinner at the Varsity with friends.

Another hot day in the 'ville included a trip down the Etowah. However, our 3 "tour" turned into 6 hours.  Tiring but very fun.  I loved being surrounded by Gods beautiful creation and the stillness, but most of all I loved the uninterrupted time with my family.  No television, video games or cell phones....just each other laughing, talking and splashing.  I didn't take my camera, but did manage one picture before we started with my phone, of course Grayson was the only one willing to take a picture. :)

Not only are the spontaneous trips and activities fun during the summer, but I love the holiday celebrations.  One of my favorites is the annual Warner 4th of July Party and this year did not disappoint.  We always have such a great time hanging out with such sweet friends. This year for some crazy reason I never got my camera out of the car, but just randomly used my phone for some shots.  That doesn't make for good picture quality or good pictures for the blog, but anyway some sweet memories are captured.
