1. The month started out with a new pet!! Carson saved up his money and bought a mouse! (yes, we actually own a creature that most people spend a lot of time trying to keep out of their house) His name is Lightning Bolt, he's a black mouse with a white stripe down his nose.
2. My dad and stepmom came to visit over 4th of July. We had a great time with them going for day hikes, swimming at the pool, and enjoying the local 4th of July festivities.
3. In the middle of the month I spent a weekend in LA with my brother, sister-in-law and beautiful niece and nephew - they are getting so big! We had a fun weekend of outlet shopping, attending a Japanese Festival, going to dance class and eating amazing food!
4. During the rest of the month we've been busy with house projects and enjoying some beautiful hikes around the area. Yesterday we got back from a 2-night camping trip out west. It was wet and rainy the first day, but God graced us with some gorgeous sunshine the second day and we really enjoyed our trip!
A few weeks left of summer... then it's back to school!! :)
