I haven't been posting the past few months, and I haven't been picture-taking either. Maybe the result of my lack of pictures is the cause of my lack of posts. Anyway, we, the Phillips family, have had a wonderful summer. I think there are a few more items on the agenda before I am willing to admit that summer is over. To briefly recap:

*Camping at Father Hennepin State Park. It is situated on MN's 2nd largest lake -- Mille Lacs Lake. It rained most of our time camping, but we had a great time!

*Hosting the Phillips family -- Ed, Mom, Nate, Julee, Jenna, Amber, Lukas, Isaac, April, Travis and Jenessa. We spent some time at Minnehaha Falls, the Walker Art Museum and Sculpture Garden, Lake Josephine, Concert at Lake Harriet and my new-found love Sebastion Joe's -- where the most amazing ice cream I've ever tasted can be found.

*Driving to UT with Jenessa to spend a couple weeks with the Schiffman family -- Hogle Zoo, Bean Museum, Scera Pool, Pioneer Commemoration Concert/Sweet Tooth Fairy double date with Rachel and Steve, pool time in the back of Grandma's house and overall a rockin' good time!

*I Can Fish at Fort Snelling State Park. We played in the lake last weekend and watched a little bit of net fishing. It was amazing to see fish actually being caught from the same spot we were playing in.

Sounds like you've had a fun summer! That part about the double date sounded especially exciting.
