The End of Summer

It has been a great summer! Tomorrow school starts, so I wanted to make sure to add our last month of summer in here. First, I'll start off with a couple pictures from the Burr reunion. Here is the Burr family at Grandpa and Grandma Burr's 60th Wedding Anniversary.

The Ken Burr Family, July 2018

August has been a fun month around here. It has been full of many days of playing and having fun. These girls are really going to miss Emily when she goes back to school tomorrow for the entire day. 

One of the most stressful things that happened to us this month was our washing machine overflowing onto our dining room carpet. Thankfully we caught it all before we went to bed that night, but it took days to dry. With me being pregnant and all, Greg did most of the work on his own. He's a keeper.

At the beginning of this month, we took our kids over to the World Center for Birds of Prey. Our kids found it all so interesting. The bald eagle was definitely their favorite.

Emily really loved it!

We always have the most pictures of Emily because she actually likes to get her picture taken.

Our three cuties!

Then we went on a little nature walk nearby and saw this awesome view of Boise.

The following weekend my sister Cassidy and her family stayed with us for a night. It was so nice to see them! 

Our kids LOVED their baby, Rose!

Later that day they got to hang out with another cousin, Millie. This is all great preparation for what will happen next month!

Mom Burr came to hang out with us for a couple of days while Malerie and Michael looked for housing (they are moving here)! She really liked the Meridian Temple.

The girls loved having grandma read them stories! They are always sad to see her leave.

Last weekend we took our kids to Roaring Springs. Emily had been begging all summer to go and so finally we went. 

Emily impressed us by how many slides she went down. She didn't want to leave!

We got a lot of comments from people about how cute their towels were. It made it much easier to keep track of them!

The next day some women in the ward threw me a baby shower. It was so nice of them and I got some great baby boy stuff. We're grateful for the good friends we have here.

On Sunday my friend, Marissa was in town. She was headed back to Utah from McCall. Although her visit was short, we had a lot of laughs and good talks.

Friends since 2007

Our kids have had so much fun living next to these boys all summer. We call them the "Neighborhood Gang". Pretty cute kids! Good bye summer!
