good ol' summertime

It's summertime.  It's comings and goings, reunions and partings, beginnings and endings, laughter and tears.  It's investing time, storing up memories, and reminding one another that though we're "in change, we're kept by the Changeless One." (Nicole Whitacre)

Our final night together before our dear friends moved away. 
Looking forward to heaven with these peeps.
No more goodbyes.

Ryan is playing on the church softball league.
We all ran in a local fun run on the 4th of July.

I hosted a tea party for my nieces, sister-in-love, and mom.


This 4th of July was memorable from start to finish.  Here are the great grandchildren with their great grandma.

My brother's family has been visiting from the Pacific Northwest.  We've enjoyed sweet love and deep heart connections after too long apart.

I love this--what an amazing summer full of time with family and friends you've had! I've had the same... just not enough photographic evidence thereof, unfortunately. Love to you all!
