Summer in a Nutshell

K, if I told all of the great Summer stories, you'd be here for the next 3 days. So quick captions are what you'll get. The summary is that we are lovin' life and livin' it up! Having such a sweet baby boy around has added a sprinkle of magic to it.

A 22 hour trip ahead....last year, the garage broke when we were trying to leave. This year, a rainstorm from the tropics (picture does not do it justice) while Cory tries to install our luggage rack. The swim trunks were a must.
Graf's blessing day at Grandma and Grandpa Costleys.

One proud papa!Love that Great Grandma...recently turned 90 years old...could be thereLove Aunt KK.A pool pyramid of crazy Idaho cousins.................................just kidding....that's us being lunatics. Can't believe I'm showing this pic considering my lovely state in it. We didn't quite get Graf--the cherry on top. Thanks for the help Uncle Bry.
Grandma K and Ryan can float as easy as laying in a bed!!Camping and creek hopping at the Walker Reunion takes me back! If you can believe, Graf slept 9 hours straight that night! What a baby!! The annual Doll Party. Justine and Lorin stitching their initials.Rare to see Cory looking so relaxed on top of a horse. Thanks to Uncle Lane they're well trained.

I can't stand the hilarity of "The Conundrum at Breakfast" an original art piece featuring the 8 and 9 year old girl cousins. Getting to see Grandma Kofoed in action on her mission near Temple Square in SLC was priceless. Carter and Zoey...some cute cousins.Miss my Daddy.

Great Grandma Kofoed let me pick out a blanket for Graf. Can you believe she has made one for all of her grandkids and great-grandkids--we're talking a couple hundred folks!!

BEAR LAKE...need I say more? Summer is not summer without it!




Back to school isn't so bad with some fun friends.

I'd given up on checking your blog...just happened to check back at the right time! Love all the photos. Perfect summer!

That pool pyramid has "injury" written all over it!

The only thing that would've made the pics of Cory horseback riding better is if he'd been riding bareback:)

I LOVE the pictures by your dad's grave. Tender moments!

Wow! You guys have a boy! I think when I saw that you were pregnant a long while ago, somewhere in the back of my brain I just assumed it would be a girl. He is adorable. You all look so great! What a fun summer!

Debra said...

Love being able to see pics of your mom too.
What a sweet family Kerri, you are so blessed, but I'm sure you know that.
