Summer fun 2023

 We had a great summer this year. We didn't do any traveling, but we had a great time close to home. We had a wonderful VBS, enjoyed our friends' pool, attended a fantastic concert, had a nice July 4th, painted pottery, went to a nearby adventure park, and more. Enjoy the pictures!

We enjoyed our Twists & Turns VBS!

We enjoyed seeing the band "Unspoken..."

We saw the Newsboys, they were really good!

We enjoyed singing along with Phil Wickham too.

We hiked nearby with our youth group to a sweet pea patch... so pretty!

We went on a small hike on Father's Day.

We loved our time with extended family for the Independence Day holiday.

We even hiked to see this waterfall!

We saw Star Wars (A New Hope) in the theater... so much fun!

We enjoyed painting our own pottery, I made a sweet, little heart vase!

Lovely pool time on a hot summer day!

And for our last hurrah, we went to an adventure park that we had never been to before. It had several roller coasters, as well as cave tours. We enjoyed it all, even the downpour in the middle of the day!

The girls...

Bethany loved these huge statues...

Fun cave tours, so nice to cool off!

I rode this roller coaster the first time, then they rode it again. It was VERY fast!

I found my wings!

What did you do this summer? Did you travel to see anything fun?

Genesis 8:22
“As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease.”


Proverbs 26:1
Like snow in summer or rain in harvest, honor is not fitting for a fool.


Proverbs 30:25
Ants are creatures of little strength, yet they store up their food in the summer;
