Time with friends and family

 We are incredibly thankful for dear family and friends,

both near and far!

Here's a smattering of those
who we were fortunate enough to spend time with in August!


Here are some usual suspects:
the Boswell brothers
 

Gigi and Great Gpa Beal had us over for dinner
 

Lil Chick practiced her walking

 and was just plain cute

 Then our dear friend Shay, of Be Photography, snapped some shots
of Lucy and her friends in their birthday tutus.

And here's what a typical August quiet-time looked like
... everyone reading!
(The English teacher in me simply HAD to photograph the moment!)

And we had a few people over for dinner:

Kate and Spencer Schaber

Grandma Cunningham,
to celebrate her birthday

Michael Carr,
as he was a bachelor for a few nights when his family was out of town

AND THEN THERE WAS CAMPING ...
with the Snyder and Carr Families

We had a wonderful time on the lake,
rented (what the Eggman likes to call) a Party Barge
had campfires
roasted things
cooked and cleaned up
(somehow, even those duties are more fun in this setting, with friends)

The Clean-up Crew

Family Photo Opp

Joe and Brea Snyder

The Carr Clan:
Silas, Ephriam, Michael, Miri and Micaiah

 Cuties!

Besties, in the making!

And the kissers.
(It was their anniversary, so we'll allow it!)

Lulu loved the Party Barge, almost as much as the Eggman did!
She was smiles, the whole time!

 Sweet Snyders!

This is a traditional picture spot for us
at our favorite coffee shop in Sisters, OR:
Sisters Coffee Company

This was the first photo, taken on our honeymoon in 2005

We also we enjoyed time at the river,
with some of the Cunningham Crew.


Scott, Mark and some of the kids created a water slide and everything!

It was an amazingly busy month, filled with love and laughter.
Praise the Lord for sweet family and precious friends.
This Eggman Family is truly blessed.

Until next time, Mama Chick out.
