Summer Gardening



Our small square foot garden has done amazingly well this summer. We have enjoyed cucumbers, snap peas (which were Kassie's favorite), tomatoes, bell peppers, and green beans. I was pleasantly surprised when we even had enough tomatoes to can salsa. Canning salsa wasn't an easy task but it was worth every second of peeling, removing all the seeds, and squeezing every tomato from the garden.

Harry Potter




Tommy has a bit of a temper. He was mad about not getting his way and accidentally ran smack into the door. I believe the bruise is from the lock on the door handle. He quickly was given the name Harry Potter.

More Arizona Visitors

Lee's sister and her family came out to visit us from Tucson, Arizona. We loved having them and the weather was perfect for them, especially since Arizona has been so incredibly hot lately. You would never think visiting the midwest in the middle of July would actually be cool but we've had one of the coolest July's on record.

While Lizzie, Josh, and Clark were here, we visited a few places that were new to us like Eagle Creek. There is actually a beach where you can go swimming but as you can see, it was a light jacket kind of day. Too bad it was 68 degrees and breezy!

The Children's Museum is always a must and the new entrance was finished which was very cool with the dinosaurs climbing into the building.

There is a special King Tut exhibit at the museum that is new which we didn't see. You have to pay extra to go in but I hear it's pretty neat.

Well, of course we went to the Speedway. You can't come to the RACING CAPITAL OF THE WORLD and not go to the car museum. This time we went on the bus ride around the track.

We could have spent all day at Holliday Park. The playground equipment was awesome.

If you live in Indy I would recommend Trader's Point Creamery. It's only a few bucks to get in and the kids can walk around and explore. Plus they can learn and watch how to milk cows. There is also a Dairy Bar that was so fabulous. How can you go wrong with homemade ice cream!!! Kassie and Tommy picked chocolate ice cream.

Poor Clark! He hurt is knee the second day he was here. While going down a slide with his dad, his foot got caught on the side and his leg got twisted. He was pretty upset and couldn't put any weight on it so, we took him to the emergency room just to play things safe. Poor guy ended up with a splint, he wasn't too found of! No worries though, nothing was broken.
