An update from Summer:

Our end-of-summer trip in August was to Southern Portugal.

We had a spectacular time.

Go here to see more.

On the way home, we stopped by Eric & Carma's for some fun.

Field trip to the Library of Congress;

then headed sown the pathway to the Botanical Gardens.

We relaxed, told jokes and ate our picnic lunch.

We all had such a blast together, we stayed an extra day.

They are fabulous hosts!

That night for the family talent show Ivy won the cute contest.

We wish you all a Happy Fall!

We carved pumpkins last night. It was fun and messy.
