August 2015

Mom, Tom, and granddad came up and we rented a pontoon boat for the day.
It was beautiful weather and we all had a great time!
Sadly, this was the only catch of the day.
Will loved riding the tube - even though he got flipped over at the end of the day.

I missed the best photo op just a few seconds later when they lost balance and
flipped over!
Will fell asleep trying on my hat - he was worn out!  : )
Granddad stayed with us for almost two weeks afterward so he could
go to the fair with us.  We enjoyed some fishing while he was here,
and really enjoyed having him stay.
We didn't have much luck - just a catfish.  Yuck!

Jenny and Brittney came the day granddad left - we stayed so busy
this month!  : )  We went to Belleville to look around and I was
surprised to find these suspenders for sale at Peight's market -
they  reminded me of dad's!
Then the Whitehall Store had Raleigh's Salve for sale!  I haven't seen
this stuff since I was a kid (and I smelled it before I even saw it
on the shelf)!  Dad swore by this stuff!!
Brittney wanted to go kayaking.  Jenny did NOT, but she went for Brittney.
Now that's love!

Will started to get the hang of diving by the end of the summer.  : )

Then mom and Kristen came to visit.  : )
Kristen and Will built some "boats" from wood chunks.

Success!  They floated!
We took Sis up to feed the carp at Raystown Lake Marina.  
We took Will to the driving range to work on his swing.
He's been enjoying hitting balls in the back yard.

Then we went for a round of put-put.
Our last play date before school started - we planned on a trip
to DelGrosso's but they were closed.  Instead we went
to Canal Basin Park in Altoona which had an
awesome playground!

The first day of second grade!  How time flies!
