the past two months! YIKES

The weeks have flown by since my last blog post.... trying to squeeze in as many summer memories as possible! So here are are many pictures as I could cram in to show you exactly what we have been up to...

 

Camping with the family... yes, tent camping!  We only stayed one night but it was a good night and we had a blast!

 

Getting as much time outside as we could... like going to the petting zoo with friends.

 

Swimming of course!!! 

 

 

At the fair we learned a valuable lesson... buy Cori an all you can ride bracelet next year! 

 

Celebrated Cordelia's 3rd birthday (twice)... once at home with an all things PINK party.

 

Adalynn trying to "play" with cousin Linley... well butt heads and try to sit on her play!

 

Birthday celebration number 2... with an ice cream cake and candle (but no singing and grandma had to blow the candle out!!)

 

As cowboy as the Gehrt girls get :) on the trail ride.  Cori was very excited to be Cowgirl Cori and ride the horses and on Papa's wagon.

 Addi on horse back for the first time with Papa and getting to stretch her legs at lunch (yes, she is walking and somewhere I have lost the pictures to prove it!!)

 Cori ridding all by herself... now that is a BIG girl!

It was a full summer and we did fit a lot in, but there were items on my to-do list that never got checked off... until next summer I guess.  Thanks for peeking in!  And if the pictures weren't enough her are a few Cori-isms:

- "time for bed Cori" ... "mom I can't, I just REALLY can't"

-"I'm meaning you"... translation "I'm mad at you"

-"Cori would you like to go on a date with Daddy?"... her answer... "I just don't know about that?"

- "mommy, tell me the truth"... "who is the truth Cori?".... "Jesus!"

- and when she doesn't want to do something "cause Jesus said"
