This and That ~ June-Aug

Bailee and Karsyn both worked at BGC this summer. In order to accommodate the kids while maintaining guidelines, they operated two sites. Bay was at Rice Elementary with the kids under 8.
Kars was at the original location with the older kids. 
They both had a very busy summer and some very long days.
Emm was my errand buddy while the girls were at work.
We had some wind that took our pool over the fence to Rich and Carla's.
Emm was so bummed that her dance recital got cancelled, but since they already had their costumes. 
We did our own little photo shoot.
Lots of celebrating with family from a distance.
And weekly car dates ....
Bailee got tutored in the use of the backpacking stove.
Dottie enjoyed some wheel barrow rides.
One of several Pandemic tie-dyeing projects ....
The beauty of a summer rainstorm
Sprit days at the club ....

... even when you're biking to and from work;)
We ventured out to IKEA while in Utah to get these college girls set up for the new year ...
The Columbine's bloomed
Tubing the Poudre with friends
Chillin' with Dottie Girl ... (said with a British accent)
The rare birthday party ... which only happened because it was outdoors.
Twinning!
Planting pots and making a fun house for Dottie
Date night at the CSU Flower Trial Garden
Getting into Trader Joe's ... worth the wait?
Occasional down-time for this working girl.
Meeting up for lunch

Escaping in Sue for some beverage therapy
We used our change jar to help a local family who lost their house in a fire. 
They have two students at Eyestone😢
The graduate banners hung downtown all summer.
Cooling off at Horsetooth Reservoir
Both Emmrey and Dottie love to sport scrunchies and scarfs.
Lunch date at Avogadro's Number with my college girls while Emm was at camp.
And Los Pepe's food truck
Bailee wanted to make some rice packs for friends so we broke out the sewing machine.
More tubing the Poudre with family
One last time to wrap up summer!
We had a campfire while we were all still under one roof.
Started getting some groceries for our Freshman
Taking advantage of lazy summer days.
Garden fresh sweetness from my sweet guy
Made sure Kars got her favorite meal before college life;)
Celebrating my early birthday on a work day with my teammates. Delicious Nothing Bundt Cakes!

This fisherwoman became a Master Angler with WY G&F for her trophy size Brook Trout.
Mark made me a third bookcase for my classroom.
Although we were remote, we got our PPE for when we return to in person.
Kars was able to attend Holland's baby shower thanks to the generosity of her aunts. She received a warm welcome at Ashlee and Ashley's:)
