birthday fun










 William was in PA for his birthday so we made a quick trip down to see him. We got there just in time to watch his game and then we had a late night dinner, hence opening presents in the parking garage as there really wasn't any other place. It was fun to see him and can't believe my sweet baby is 22 already. Such a wonderful young man. So proud of the man he has become. 

water days





 This week had some more hot days and we were able to get to the lake and pool to keep cool. Enjoying summer days!

fishing festival











Izzy and I attended a local fishing festival. They had different learning stations where she learn about specific fish, do a craft, learn to tie knots and cast a fishing rod. She was very into all of it. She then had the opportunity to fish for awhile. She did not catch anything that day but on our way out they gave her a brand new fishing pole since sha had spent the whole day there. Her luck is still with her. Now we have to find some places to go fishing.
 

lake day


 We spent this ridiculously hot day,  95 degrees,  at one of Vermont's beautiful state parks. Thank goodness for friends with boats and toys. The kids spent the afternoon on the boat taking turns in this awesome tube. They had a blast and were very suntanned and tired by the time we got home tonight.

Good summer fun.

tournament champions







We had a hot and long weekend of soccer. Harkin's team worked hard and they won the tournament for his age group. These kids have been together for over 5 years now and really have come together as a team. So happy for them. 

soccer: upgraded







 Will has been working towards one goal: To play professional soccer.

He has been playing men's soccer at the collegiate level for the past three years and has been working so hard towards the next step.

This summer it is coming true. He made a National Premier Men's Soccer team. He is playing in Hershey PA for the Hershey FC. This is a big deal and we are so very  proud of him. 

It hasn't been an easy road and he has had several disappointments along the way, but kept on persevering. This is by no means the end but we can't be happier for him and love watching him play. 

Your our superstar!!

May and June













Two months have passed since I have written. Life is definitely going by faster as I get older. Its been a good two months. 

Spring came slowly as we had lots of rain but now we are about to head into summer! 

Landon came home from Spain and it has been so good to have him home although we don't see him much as he is busy working a lot. 

Will stayed in PA for the summer but came home for a quick visit one weekend. 

Harkin has been enjoying going to the Vermont Green games with either Eric or myself.

Izzy got promoted to her next belt.

We are hoping to have a pretty mellow summer.  Already made it to the pool once! Yay.
