We have had a blast this summer! My oldest turned FIVE this summer and I took her to Worlds of Fun for the first time. She had a Blast. I also learned how to make homemade Blackberry jam and can some veggies.

Well I got a new puppy after losing mine after 14 years. My new child is Bowie McQueen and was from Dallas Dog Rescue Rehab and Reform. She is just a cutie and can’t wait to see what the future holds for us!

I just had to look up that amusement park and I can only imagine how much fun this was for your five year old!!! And YUM blackberry jam :heart_eyes: I feel like that would be so good on so many things: toast, pancakes, by the spoonful hahah. Thanks for sharing, Charlotte!

Awwww HI Bowie! Those eyes 🥹 She looks like the happiest little pup, hopefully bringing some light back into your home Randy, so sorry for your loss :heart:

Great summer! Lots of boating and pool days. This was a hot summer so being near water was almost a daily thing. Spent some time in South Lake Tahoe as well. Definitely ready for some Fall weather, cozy sweaters and all the holidays!

We took a roadtrip from Dallas and made our way up to Southern Utah and visited at all of the different National Parks. My daughter did surprisingly well for spending several hours in the truck everyday, but she was excited to earn Junior Ranger badges at each park.

Thank you very much Lauren!

As Gina mentioned, it was a hot summer so it was filled with lots of pool days for me as well! I also got to travel to Napa Valley and San Francisco. I’ve been spending more time with my family too which has been nice. Looking forward to the cooler weather and holidays!

our team has been growing and expanding over the summer, and we are excited to have new perspectives in the work place, We are all learning the best ways to build our plans from the ground up and use everyone’s strengths in the best possible ways. Looking forward to putting these new skills to use

Beautiful eyes! Heterochromia. Many cultures believe that pups with eyes like this can see both heaven and earth at the same time. Much luck to you and Bowie - she is beautiful!

I spent time this summer learning some new tech tools to help me in business, time management, and personal development. After that, I gave myself more Me Time with early morning walks to beat the heat. Self-care is something I am learning to expand on and practicing making it a daily routine.

We spent the summer doing as much camping as we could.

I got to take two different trips to the beach. It was great to get away for a few days and enjoy the cooler weather!

Summer was/is super hot in Texas but we didn’t waist the opportunity to enjoy our inflatable pool

Planning a wedding is not as much fun as you expect it to be… hahaha

I spent time with family at the beach, celebrated love at a couple of weddings, and spent a lot of time on the lake. I also learned how to can pickles using my grandmother’s dill pickle recipe. I haven’t had her pickles in 12 years and it was so nostalgic tasting them again!

Lots of family time looking forward to fall for some camping trips.
