What a busy summer we've had! We spent SO much time getting the house ready to sell, and even MORE time looking for a new house. It's only been the last few weeks that we've lived any kind of 'normalcy'. Just this past week was the first time I had a chance to do something I've wanted to do all summer. I took Magnus rollerblading by the lake. It was a super hot day and I had a great workout! And what made it even more fun was Magnus and I had a picnic by the water's edge.

We had so much fun, in fact, that Matt joined us this past weekend. Magnus and I rollerbladed again while Matt went for a run. Sigh. Trying to soak up the last few days of summer (if the stupid polar vortex would go away - 'Augtober' indeed!).
Admittedly, we did get some time to relax this summer. We spent quite a bit of time at the cottage, and Magnus and I got to spend a lot of time with my family too (every few weeks we would drive home to see the Hawkins clan and / or the Raz clan). So I can't say we didn't enjoy the summer. Just that I wish I had enjoyed more.
On that note, here is a dump of photos and videos from the summer.
We begin with some fun with the Hawkins clan.

Thanks to all the cousins for helping look after Magnus. You were all a big help, and he had so much fun playing with you!
