Summer Fun

 We had lots of fun in July.  The kids are great ages, and they're so enjoyable, most of the time!

We were so lucky.  We were eating supper, and a rainbow ended in our yard.  Unfortunately, there was no pot of gold.  But, it was really cool, nonetheless.

We took a trip to Stone Mountain with the big kids and Lorelei.  We left the little terrorist at home!  They had such a good time, and so did we.  We were very fortunate in that the temperature was very nice while we were there.

The Second Annual Smith Family Campout was another big success.  The kids had SOOOO much fun.  The adults were more than a little hot and tired, but it was worth it for the time the kiddos had!  It's funny because last year everybody was holding Gray; he wasn't even one yet.  This year, everybody is holding a different baby, Lorelei!

Aunt Renee prepares the sandwich table, the highlight of which (in my opinion) was the homegrown tomatoes to make BLTs.  Please keep these on the menu in the future!  I LOVED them!

Levi's first lost top tooth(third total tooth).  He actually lost it at the campout!




For the talent show, we did a variation of the Gopher Girls skit.  The boys were "Gorgeous Guy" here.

Cousin Jodi brought some cool things.  They had so much fun catching the abundance of flies and putting them in the container.

Gray and Ellie Ruth loved Uncle Smitty.
