July 7th - July 9th

 For those of you not on Facebook with me, I'll start playing a little bit of "catch up" on this blog with photos from this summer:
 After the 4th of July, we spent a weekend between Wayne's baseball game, Shadow Lake, visiting my brother Paul & his family in Waterbury, and heading back to Glover.
 Heather and Estelle got to stay overnight at Shadow with Aunt Martha - what fun!
 Wayne was in a baseball tournament right in Glover, for the All Star Team!  Here he is at bat:
 There are some sand piles to play in at the ball field:
 Lots of fun watching the game:  Liz, Wes, Katie, Darlene, Wayne, Peter & Jeanne, Joan, Martha with Lena, & Jacob

 Back at the lake, making a fairy house:
 Heaven on earth:
 Léna and Cole love to play in the loft:
 2 peas in a pod
 Paul George greets me with a Corona - now that's love.
 Chelsea, fresh back from Australia! 
 These girls got a work out - thanks Lauren & Chelsea!
 Creemee = summer in Vermont.

 Prove that he is a great host:  pancakes on a Sunday morning:
 Swing swing swing!
 Estelle enjoys her birthday present from Martha - a hand-made hula hoop!
 Lesley shows us how it's done....
 Big girls and little girls.  Cousins all around.
 Sunday afternoon, they took us to the Waterbury Resevoir, where I had never been - what a great spot!


 Going on a little walk with Aunt Lesley:


 Let's go fly a kite, up to the highest height.....
 Sunday afternoon we headed back up to Glover and enjoyed dinner with the Coleman's at the Aldrich Lane farm where my father was born.  Here are the girls with Iris & Reed Coleman, who are the same age as my 2.



What fun we had!
