Finally Wrapping Up Summer

Our summer felt very busy, and even while we took moments to just relax and enjoy, it was a full summer.  My choice not to blog often this summer was mostly due to trying to simplify my days and leave more quiet space in my life.  We had many moments that I wanted to document here, to share with friends and family, to rejoice in God's goodness, and to encourage others, so I will try to recap some of our sweetest moments of the summer:



For our 12th anniversary we celebrated with an evening coffee date.  
What a blessing to be married to my best friend! 



Aliah turned 12 on August 17th!  
We rejoice in God's faithfulness in Aliah's life 
and trust Him to complete every good work He has started!



For Aliah's birthday she went to a horse-riding class.
She was a natural with the horse!



We celebrated Nana's SURPRISE birthday - 
and everyone kept it a secret!

Camp O-for-Fun: The annual Olson family camp.
This year's theme was Lifeguard Camp.
It was O-for-Fun!


Schlagel Family Reunion following Camp O-for-Fun:
a day of family, food, and fun at the farm!
