I finally put together these photos from spring through summer—after a lot of procrastination. These snapshots capture family moments, outings, and small celebrations. I’m reluctant to see summer end, but seasons change, and I’m grateful for the time we had. Enjoy the gallery below.

| My girl (left) performing in church. It was her third and final performance of the school year. She’s so dramatic—can you see it? |
|
| At the park in early spring. #girlsclub. Daddy is our official photographer. |
|
| Who rocked the look better? Lol. |
|
| At a resort in northern Minnesota, about two hours from home. That was in April—we had a great time! |
|
| My girls cooking in a play kitchen at the Children’s Museum. So much fun! |
|
| Another museum visit. This was in May. |
|
| S dressed up as a mailman at the Minnesota Children’s Museum. |
|
| My lovely, happy little sister—best little sister ever. She brings joy to our home. |
|
| Ouch—kids threw a pie in his face. This happened at Vacation Bible School (VBS) in June. |
|
| Listening to Biblical teachings at Vacation Bible School. That’s N in pink. |
|
| S in yellow, learning at the feet of Jesus. |
|
| I mentioned my Indian dinner in another post. This dessert was a parfait made by a friend’s twelve-year-old daughter. |
|
| Indian chicken curry—yum! |
|
| My plate: rice, a potato dish, and a cabbage dish (I forgot the exact names, but it was delicious). |
|
| Part of the table spread prepared that weekend in June. |
|
| At a spa—absolutely relaxing. I didn’t want to leave. |
|
| My little one—my newly coined “chubbilistic”—chilled in her car seat while the older girls and I enjoyed the water park. When people ask what I feed her, I jokingly answer, “Nature…and bobbi.” |
|
| Me and my buddy, just chilling. |
|
| My besties— we’re so in love! |
|
| No sun, but I still had to wear sunglasses—by force. |
|
| Staring into the future of this blog
I’m not excited about the upcoming Minnesota winter, but posting these photos helped me find closure. It’s been an amazing summer—the sun shone and we felt blessed. How was your summer or long holiday? Share your story below.
