It's been WAY too long...

Okay - I'm going to try to catch up on the past 4 months! The problem is - we've done SO much since April that I've avoided updating my blog because it seems like there's TOO much to update! S0 - in a brief month-by-month rehash, here are the highlights:
APRIL

We went to visit Adrian's grandparents
(this is the Grandpa that one of Finn's middle names Leon is after!)
Grandpa & Grandma with our family

We saw a lot of the relatives - just didn't get many pictures!
I guess we'll just have to go back to remedy that!



MAY


Our Miss Anya B. turned SIX! Can you believe it? She had a roller skating party.


Adrian was 'Man of the Year' for his company! Finn loved the balloons that he got.


Finn got more new teeth - although his top ones aren't showing, he now has 4!
Our annual Van Lierops photo shoot...Kedron refused to NOT make a funny face in any picture.




JUNE

Anya graduated from Kindergarten!



She got an 'official' diploma from her teacher, even signed by the principal!


We went to MOUNT RUSHMORE!!!! I've always wanted to see it...and we finally did! My Mom & Dad came along, which was really fun!




We also went to visit the Devil's Tower in Wyoming.



JULY

We got home from our trip just in time for the 4th of July! We lit exactly 3 fireworks - 2 day parachutes and one mortar. Woohoo. You may notice that Anya lost her first tooth that day! She was not sure if she should be excited or scared, so she laughed and cried at the same time!



We spent a weekend out at my parent's property at Lake Sutherland.




AUGUST
(so far)


We went to our church convention at Milltown, WA.
We stayed in our new trailer for the weekend.


My handsome boys on Sunday morning!

Now - school is starting for me - at least teacher days next Wednesday!
How did summer fly by SO fast?
