We have had a busy summer of traveling, first our annual trip to Woodward Camp in Pennsylvania, then on to Maine for three and a half weeks, and now back to Woodward!

We had an awesome time in Maine visiting the Adams family, with a bonus visit from Sariah for the 4th of July.

Fun Times With The Cousins |
We didn't do much...just kayaked, hiked, built fairy houses, caught frogs and snakes, did fireworks, visited the Portland Headlight lighthouse, picked strawberries, picked blueberries, spent many days at the beach, visited LL Bean, saw a life sized chocolate moose, and even toured Wellesley College outside of Boston.

I got to see old friends from my YW days, and just enjoy the beauty of the New England coast.
Raistlin and his cousin Jayne became little buddies and spent countless hours playing together, he already misses her.

Rainy Day Fun |
Maya had a wonderful reunion as well with her best friend cousin, Addie.
Rustam is staying busy with his normal coaching work, but also has added on a boys gymnastics club program at OSU, which will be helpful to the future of OSU Men's Gymnastics.
He teaches in priesthood every month; I am still teaching art lessons weekly and working as the nursery leader (over our THREE giant nurseries; we have 38 nursery aged children in our ward!!!)
Ksenia will be 10 (yikes! Double digits!) in December, Maya will be 8 in August and is really looking forward to her baptism:), Belle turned 6 in July, and Raistlin turned 2 in April.
