Summer: A Retrospective

June


We went to the NC Aquarium at Fort Fisher...


...where we were warned not to walk around in the wildlife habitats. Important safety tip.


July


Sophie turned four!


She opened presents. First she opened an apron we gave her, and promptly put it on.


Then, she opened a dress that Mimi and Pa Joe gave her, and promptly put it on.


Then, she got a Cinderella nightgown from Uncle Dan and Aunt Anna, and a doctor's kit from Aunt Megan, and promptly put them all on.


I made the most ridiculously large cake in the history of birthday cakes.


We ate it.


We took Sophie to see her first movie in a movie theater-- WALL-E! Her comment? "That's a big T.V.!"


We finally replaced our digital camera...


...and took random pictures using the macro setting.

August


We went to the pool.


Sophie kept trying to distract us so that she could go down the big slide. But we were too clever to fall for her little tricks.


We went to Mimi and Pa Joe's for Pa Joe's birthday party!


We went to Five Guys sometimes on Fridays after work.


We went to the Quartet concert at church...


... and presented Nana with some flowers after the concert. She arranged all the orchestra music and worked really hard! And of course, wowed everyone with her piano playing abilities!

And that's pretty much it! I'll try to be better about updating for Fall. (But don't hold your breath!)
