Summer Vacation Is Here!

All of the Burley cousins
(except for the oldest two - one being on her honeymoon)
in a wildly unique tree on Harmony and Chris's property!

School is out, warm weather abounds, the sun is shining, and we are loving it!  We attended the wedding of our niece/cousin at the beginning of Memorial Day weekend, and enjoyed a fun visit with many of our extended Burley/Black family members, as well as "old friends", Greg's pastor and wife, and even "old" teachers! Our children decided to stay on and spend a few days with Grandpa and Grandma Burley, and they are having a blast.  Kaitlynn caught a 13.5" bass, and has become quite a pro at baiting the hooks with minnows!  They have been swimming and fishing quite a bit, and spent last weekend at a cabin in northern MI.  Grandpa and Grandma are going to be worn out, so we hope that they can spend a few days catching up on their rest.  :)  They are making great memories, and we are so happy that Grandpa and Grandma are allowing them these opportunities! 
Hopefully we will be able to catch up with photos from the end-of-year school activities.  The computer that holds our photos decided to be difficult, and we are still trying to recover everything.  The kids had a really good school year, and at least two of them will probably be ready to go back by mid-July, but we are trying to have enough planned activities/chores/challenges to keep them from getting "bored" (which is a word that is completely banned from our home!).
Happy Tuesday!
