Boating!!!

Hey everybody! Sooooo sorry for leaving the blog so quiet for so long!!! Partly due to nothing interesting to post and partly due to being busy........the blog has been put on the back burner=P But, now we're back with lots of fun pics from our grandparents--so hang on!!!!! =D

Austin and Katie makin' some dust

All the dogs wanna be in the picture too!

Fixing the skid-loader after the wheel went flat

Some of these pictures are blurry....it's very hard to hold a camera still!

(I finally got Dad to go on the tube with me! We didn't fall off once!)

Katie rather shakily tries to balance on one ski

 

Austin despairs after Katie loses it?!

Ahh....relaxing!

Austin skied for a little...

Dad jumping around

Uncle Gerald makes some good cuts

Summer Fun

 Well, here's more random pictures....Enjoying the weather like always! This is a long post, so get ready!!! ~

Rollerblading

Mom took Katie, Emily and Jared to a parking lot to rollerblade. We set up our own "obstacle courses" and did all sorts of stuff!

Trying to go between the cones!!

"I think I can do this!!"

It's the new thing...playing soccer on rollerblades!!

Hiking

We went to the Pagoda in Reading with some friends, and had a picnic & did some hiking.

This part was pretty steep!!

Looking out over the whole city of Reading....

And of course....the pagoda!

Emily and LoisAnn

Some of the boys (and some girls=) braved the rock wall...

Remember that the hard part is not going up, but coming down!



Swimming

Summer just isn't summer without lots of swimming .... and since the ponds and pools are finally opening--guess what we've been doing?

Stephana and Katie

Christian and Jared

I guess it was a little bright for Tonya!!

Johnny taking it easy

Christina, LoisAnn & Emily
