We've waited patiently by the poolside to the point of exhaustion . . .
. . . spun around in circles at Discovery Park . . .
. . . cuddled with Daddy . . .
. . . gotten ready for church . . .
. . . posed for a not so good photo . . .
. . . and another not so good photo . . .
. . . and a better of the not-so-good series . . .
. . . tried taking a nice picture with Grandpa . . .
. . . and then a silly one . . .
. . . gone swimming with Grandpa . . .
. . . embraced Grandma . . .
. . . made vegan sausages with Grandma . . .
. . . planted a little garden . . .
. . . fried up Grandpa's wild caught fish . . .
. . . experimented with the piano . . .
. . . found the floor to be more comfortable . . .
. . . than the bed . . .

. . . given away oodles of good night kisses . . .
. . . eaten many satisfying dinners . . .
. . . climbed rocks . . .
. . . hiked to waterfalls with family . . .
. . . stuffed our faces with strawberries . . .
. . . been bored while Mommy's on the computer . . .
. . . brushed teeth and washed hands . . .
. . . and bickered over sharing toys. What have you done this summer?
Tate's idea of repelling was sliding down rocky slopes. Well, you gotta start somewhere. 
Alex was excited for Orion to go down the mountain. But he had nothing to do with it. 
Elliot coming down. 
Tate eating some fruit. 
Elliot and baby Lily. 
Hinckley and me, waiting our turn. 
Chrysalis on the other hand, went down the cliff no problem next to her Daddy. Reminds me of my younger two siblings. My baby sister was always fearless next to her older brother. 
Orion, like Tate, preferred sliding down the rocky slopes. Like I said, gotta start somewhere.
