I am trying to catch up on my posting as it has been pretty busy around here. Carl, Deb, and their kids came over on the 30th of July for a week vacation and for Ashton's wedding on the 31st. The wedding was really nice and the thunder storms managed to give way to sunshine for the ceremony.
Connie's sister and her husband brought their oldest grandson Andrew up here from Utah to spend a week week with us on the 5th of August. We had a good time showing them around the valley for a couple of days. We managed to take in the Farmers Market, Stevensville's Creamery Picnic, and the cowboy poet Baxter Black. They left today and Andrew will spend this week with us and his parents will pick him up next week.
A few pictures of the week.
