Libawry (in Henry speak)

Henry loves to go to the library and I love that he loves it. It is one of our favorite outings and we try to get there once a week. Again this summer, he got a reading trophy for listening to 20 books, which we counted as 20 new books.

I also included the picture from last year with the trophy. And no it isn't the exact same shirt!

Oh won't you take me to the Vineyard in the summer...

I'm quoting the lyric to a favorite song, but also reflecting on our Franke family vacation in June. We headed to Saratoga Springs, NY to see Mark's cousin Sara graduate high school and then the immediate family of six headed to Martha's Vineyard for some fun in the sun.

I have attached my photos here, but see more at Mark's sisters blog: http://frankebell.tumblr.com/ Look for posts dated July 24/25.







And one of the small joys of our vacation was this sight right here. Nothing beats the smell of air dried clothes!
