NY Late June and July

As usual, summer is flying by. The weather has been great and the girls have been having an awesome time at camp making friends and learning new things. Peyton had her first regatta and loved it! The tow back to AYC was quite scary and rough as a  thunderstorm rolled in. Kai has been stuck with Nonnie and me, but seems ok with that. He rode the train with Nonnie which he thought was the best thing ever! I really cant believe we only have one more week left.

parents are not allowed on the docks

Eliza, in her blue goggles, all ready for swim class

The hills are alive with the sound of music......

 Smith/Sadler clans reunited

 and their love continues to blossom

 Kai and the lovely Sadler ladies

Kai was thinking he would capture that turkey for Thanksgiving

maybe a guinea fowl?

                     A huge thanks to Benji, who gave Peyton a much needed private lesson

Kai still enjoys the occasional dress up session

                                                            Elena and Kate Chesley (Mandys girls)

                                                everyone thoroughly enjoyed cupcakes

                                               Kai enjoyed all the flotation devices the pool offered

                                                                              good thing we didn't slip

                                                                 Eliza and her friend Gracie

                                                                      looking for hermit crabs

                                                                   digging while doing the splits

                                                                      right in our backyard
