Summer?

Anyone in Chicago would probably say that summer is too short but this summer flew by - w/ the mild temps and our busy schedule it was a whirlwind.  We kicked off the summer at Lake Wawasee where Aunt Renee married Uncle Dan - it was a beautiful ceremony overlooking the lake.  Mallory & Darcy both served as flower girls and did a great job!  

In July we spent the 4th weekend in Lansing, IL at the Bloms and went to the Highland Festival where Mallory rode tons of rides - possibly a new Melson tradition!  We also celebrated Mallory's bday at Fair Oaks Farm w/ Nannie & Boppo and lots of aunts, uncles & cousins!

Mostly we just enjoyed the summer with lots of walks to the parks, playing w/ chalk & scooters/bikes outside and being with each other!
