Well after my evening fix of Merlin I finally was able to load some pictures on to blogger... my goodness it took forever, but they are here and ready to be viewed.
We are 19 days into July and we haven't been too busy here at the Bing home... Both Brandon and I are in our second summer science class and both enjoying it a lot. Brandon has been enjoying it and wants to take some more courses so he can teach science too. We are entering the last week of class and even though we like it we are ready to be finished... I have my final project pretty much done, it's on the clown fish and I have learned so much! We are both ready to have our Summer Begin... I'm ready to have time to clean my apartment, make cards and work on my wedding scrap book, which is a book of invites and pictures from my friends past weddings. Don't worry though we haven't been all work and no play... we have been able to have some fun this month and here are a few of the pictures... hope you enjoy!
I was able to take a day off from work and school to go and hangout with Sonja and the kids. She is babysitting this summer, so she has four cuties at her home every day, so I went down and spent the morning with them enjoying the fun and the sun. We went to the play ground and had a fun time... Sonja and Karington enjoyed the rocking froggy!!
Little Miss Lyla growing up so fast!!!
Baby Karington... too cute in her little sun hat!
Later that Friday Brandon and I were able to go and hangout with his family... we went out in the boat and then had a BBQ with almost the entire family. It was a lot of fun and I was able to get some more sun, I'm so pale that I take any chance I can get to get some color. I didn't venture out in the boat this time, but enjoyed taking pictures from the shore. I spent some time talking to my brother-in-law Jaccob's girlfriend Sarah and her best friend Sarah, which was pretty funny, they ventured out in the tube, this is them just before they headed out!
Lucy the Beagle... she is such a cute puppy... love this picture of her!
The boys paddling into shore... Jaccob and Brandon
Brittany and her boyfriend Ian... this was the first time I met him but he seems very nice!

Canada Day 2009... this year on Canada Day we headed over to my sister-in-law Meaghan's house for a family BBQ. We hadn't been to the Stewart's in awhile so it was great to see the changes at the house and to see them and their chocolate lab buddy. They recently renovated their bathroom and it looks amazing they did such a wonderful job! We had such a fun night, the food was delicious ad the company even better. We ate, we played catch phrase, roasted marshmallows and had some fireworks too!! Great night... a BIG thanks to Meaghan and Jason for having us all over!!! Happy Canada Day!!
Akayjah, Ryan, Chelsey and my father-in-law Peter... doesn't Akayjah have a great smile she is such a little beauty!
Sarah and Jaccob relaxing after a day out on the water... Jay got a little burnt
Great friends were there to celebrate too.. Stacy and Akayjah with my sister-in-law Meaghan
Brandon and I being festive... when you work at ROOTS you have your choice in Canada Day Wear... I chose my latest Canada Hoody and a printed maple leaf tee... I love love love this shirt and all its fun... I don't know why I didn't wear it last Canada Day!

Hope that this post finds everyone well and enjoying the summer even though it hasn't always felt like summer yet in Nova Scotia but it is coming. I will post again soon since I'll be done school and enjoying my summer holidays... all 5 weeks of it before practice teaching starts again... I'm going to be in grade three this year and couldn't be more thrilled about that... it's the grade my mom retired from so it'll be nice to chat with her and bounce ideas off her!!

Karen, you will LOVE tennis! It's so fun to play! We played a LOT while we were dating & first married. The key is playing with someone who is about your same skill level though. It's not as fun if one of you is WAY better or worse than the other. Nate is a lot better than I am, but like I said, when he plays easy, then i have a chance. Although I do have a better backhand than he does!!! He just kills me with his serves!!
Enjoy your summer break! Nate has most of August off, and we can't wait! Lots of 4-wheeling & hiking!!
Oh the tube...oh it makes me nervous just seeing it in photos. I went out with that Papa Bing, Meaghan and Celine and well...I'm a little afraid of water and afraid of being thrown in water but that Peter Bing...he thinks it's funny to throw you in anyway.
Love the festive outfit!!!!
Glad you managed to get your pics loaded...I looked like I'm enjoying the froggy more than Karington. Oh well!! Sounds like a fun July so far!
Great update! Glad to see you are having fun and hope you enjoy your time off! Loved all the cute pics!
