Here are a few more summer pics! Sarah got a drum kit in the basement!

We started to get some dahlia blooms from the Costco bulbs we planted.

A hike to Cranberry Lake to check out the restored section of boardwalk that was recently finished.

The Merchants’ second visit, end of the summer before they returned to Abu Dhabi. We made it to Playland!

Sarah was tall enough to drive the bumper cars!

We all got matching air brush dragon tattoos!

We also took the kids to their first ever trivia night, where Blaine’s random knowledge was very helpful. 🙂

At the end of the summer we happened upon the celebration for Walter’s 105th anniversary.

And we said goodbye to Manor Beach for the summer! And also goodbye to these old locks on the bathhouses, since we were told next summer they will be replaced by combination locks! 🙁 There goes the kids’ dreams of one day getting a job in the key room. Goodbye, Summer 2024!
