Summer Recp

How can summer be over already?  Wasn't it just last week that school let out?  Like every year, summer has come and gone much too fast.  Even though we weren't able to check everything off of our summer bucket list, like going to the beach or back to Silver Dollar City or just getting out of town for a week, we still managed to pack a lot fun into those few precious weeks of summer.  This was the best summer since becoming a parent.  This was the first summer where both girls were old enough to enjoy everything.  I loved every almost every minute of this summer and am sad to see it end.  It was awesome to see how excited they got over everything we did.  It just proves that we don't have to go on expensive trips (even though we'd like to) to have a great summer.  I hope the summer of 2017 is just as amazing as this one.  Here is a recap of all of the fun (and memories) we had.
