August...and the end of Summer

Oh August...I love Summer.  The only thing I don't like about August is that it leads to September, which leads to it getting colder and colder.  Oh well, life goes on.  This summer was really fun because I wasn't pregnant or didn't just barely have a baby.  We've gone on lots of family bike rides, playing outside, walks to the park, a family reunion in Park City, and playing in sprinklers.  Channing finally earned enough money to qualify him to get a power wheels four-wheeler.  He loves that thing.  I'm pretty sure he's driven it everyday since we got it for him.  I'm super proud of him too because he actually worked hard to earn that four-wheeler.  He would ask to do a chore, which in reality means more work for me, and then he'd either sweep, mop, clean windows, vacuum the car, or whatever I needed done that day.  We'd go to Walmart to grocery shop and he'd see a cool toy and ask if he could have it.  And I would tell him that he could buy the

Kenney Family Reunion

Friday: Boating, tubing
