Dear Sis,

We’ve been on vacation for about three weeks, so I’ve backdated the segments of our adventures to their respective places in our recent timeline. I hope you enjoy this photo journal:)

June 17th

We arrived at Great and Pop’s in the late afternoon. We visited their neighbors who have a train display right in their yard! 

Afterward, we met Gran and Dave at a local outdoor diner for supper.

June 18th

Grandma put us to work! We installed lighting under her microwave so her stovetop is nice and bright.

For anyone with a dark kitchen area, these LED strips are super easy to install and plug directly into a wall outlet!

I was then tasked with fitting a curtain to the narrow window by the front door.  We ordered some magnetic curtain rods on Amazon. I did have to take the old sheer that was hanging home to refashion it into a proper window treatment. But the completed curtain image fits in the timeline best here:)

The last Grandma project is also out of sequence because I made it at your house and gave it to her at Eve’s birthday party, but again, it makes the most sense here. Grandma saw a sign with this quote in a Dairy Queen bathroom two years ago and has been asking me where she can find one to buy every time I visit. This time she had a photo and everything, so I decided to just make one:)

Papa Jeff brought bubbles!

Cousin Laura’s daughter Aubry is only a few months younger than William. All the little cousins got along so well! William feels like he made a new friends:)

July 19th & 20th

William has been asking to go camping for over a year. It’s wonderful that we finally went, even if it was just for one night. It was fun to be back at our old stomping ground… Raccoon Creek State Park. Next year I think the kids will be old enough for a whole weekend!

Our hike to Frankfort Mineral Springs was also a success!

Our Pennsylvania was short, sweet, and action packed!

Love,
