What a great summer this has been for us! We started it out with a trip to see our Chan Clan in Washington. We had so much fun with them, hiking, picnicing and playing.
Our little Tate Joseph's arrival was the highlight of the summer. He is healthy and strong and smiling and cooing now. What a cutie pie.
There are lots of birthdays in our family in June and July: Natalie and Holland, Carolina, Jane, Gramy Ruth, Jack, Kate and Emily. So that means lots of parties and fun!
Joe and Dave went to Alaska to see the Palenskes and do a little salmon fishing (and get out of this unbelievable AZ heat!) They had a great time up there.
This is also the month for Jack Emig to be baptized. I will post pictures later of that special occasion!
In July we traveled to Utah for a wonderful Steinerson Family Reunion. It was 4 days of getting to know our Steinerson relatives from Oregon and Utah and St. Louis and playing with cousins we don't see very often.
Here are some random pictures of all our Summer 2010 Fun!
The family page below is from the beautiful book that Emily made for each family at the Reunion. Thanks so much Emily. We all loved it!
(sorry about the double picture below. I CANNOT get rid of it!) HELP!!
