Make A Joyful Noise

Although it isn't the official "first day of summer," I thought I should write a summer post. I just got back from a nice little vacation in Denver. I flew with Joel and Aliya, and I stayed with the Longtine's. I'm so grateful they took me in and let me into their home for over a week. I am also very grateful to Stephanie for letting me take over her bed :) Thank you so much for making it possible for me to stay in Denver! Here are some pictures of what we did there :D


Saint Mary's Glacier




Stephanie took this one by the way :)



















all of us kids driving up to Saint Mary's Glacier.




Four of the Longtine kids had to go to the dentist so we drove up to Boulder and waited in the dentist's office for a few hours.



Stephanie and I :D We went to Krispy Kreme, and since we had coupons we got free donuts!
All in all I had a great trip to Denver and I'm very grateful I got to go. Hope everybody else is having a great start to their summers!
with love,
AES
(sorry all of the pictures are out of order) :P

This past weekend all of us girls went camping with some friends. here are just some pictures of our campsite and the sunrise, and of course some pictures of us!

This weekend Rachel Bauer's parents are out of town so she has been staying the nights at our house. Friday we were walking to Publix and we found many "treasures." We also found some funny-named sauces :D

Alright well as you can tell I have not posted in for almost a month! I have not been doing much sine then. As usual our computer was out for about a month, so we were stuck using the laptop (which doesn't work with my blog) So that's one reason why I haven't posted, or looked at other blogs. In this past week we fixed our little computer problem, so hopefully I can post more! A little update on life: My Great-Grandmother passed away this past Sunday, so my mom flew to CO. this Thursday to attend her funeral services, and doesn't get back till Monday. Us kids are home alone this weekend while my dad is at work, so hopefully we'll last this weekend! God Willing... I finish all my school by May 20th, and on June 3rd-June 11th Joel Aliya, and I are flying to visit some of our old friends in Colorado. I'm a little nervous flying without grownups, but I should be fine. Our plane has to stop in Wisconsin so maybe I'll pick some postcards up as well :D Also the pool opens May 17th, so most likely we'll be swimming a lot this summer (GA. summers are pretty hazy) In the beginning of July we hope to drive to VA for our yearly trip to the beach and to visit friends. And this is about it for my summer. I'm trying to get back into the swing of things here, and hopefully you'll all see more posts on my blog soon!

So until then~

P.S. My mom took my camera to CO. so I can't post pictures till she comes back :D
