"But the summer had been a very happy one, too -- a time of glad living with summer suns and skies, a time of keen delight in wholesome things; a time of renewing and deepening of old friendships; a time in which she had learned to live more nobly, to work more patiently, to play more heartily."
--Anne, Anne of the
Anne’s quote pretty much sums up my summer. Well, that is if you add drinking lots of milk, an Irish festival,
Here are a few pictures from the summer. I’m sure Anne would agree that while I did learn to work and wait more patiently I was also able to play 'heartily' as well.
4th of July fun with my mom and sisters. I was also able to go Dad's sales route with him. Just like when I was small!
Quality time with my precious grandmas. :)
Wonderful visits with Patty and Angie (and Grant too!) in oHIo.
Yichang, China reunion in Indy. Wo ai ni men!!
My family was finally (after 5 years!) able to meet Kim's family. And I also finally got taste of the cinnamon chip pancakes at Bob's...delicious!
Then on to Dublin, Ohio for a craic filled Irish festival complete with a Gaelic Storm concert and the Blankenships!
A little Starbucks pick-me-up with Elaine and Andrea (and baby too!).
A night out on the town in Chicago. First a wonderful meal with some of our favorite Flys and then it was off to a Broadway show...Wicked!
Needless to say, we were a bit excited to finally be able to see Wicked. 
Last stop: Cedarville. Mom and I took Kristy back to school for her senior year (!) and were joined by the ever lovely, Patty M.
Sadly, I don't have pictures with the Johnsons, Megan, Huster or the Lehmanns but getting to see/visit all of you helped make my summer complete.
And thus concludes my summer of '08.
