IPhone uploads

Here are a few pictures I got off of Mike's IPhone... it's a bunch of misc. photos over the past few weeks.

A day at camp

A couple weeks ago we were invited to Richard & Nancy's camp for some fun in the sun... here are some photo's complements of Richard (thanks, cause I forgot my camera!) Lots of fun swimming, kayaking and eating smores! Bella stayed overnight for a sleepover at camp, then the next night David stayed at Richard & Nancy's with the boys and Arden came over to our house for a girls only sleepover. The kids had such a good time together...

My Sister came to visit us this week

We were very excited to have my sister & family come to visit us this week. First time for them to visit us in NH without having to sleep on a couch (in our cozy apartment!) We had a great time together, doing lots of shopping (priorities!) and of course a trip to the beach. I forgot my camera at the beach, so I have no pictures to share...

here's Andrew...
and Cathy playing the piano for the kids

kids got a new game of croquet from their cousins
