The Life of Gabe and Mandy

"It is a good thing to give thanks unto the LORD, and to sing praises unto thy name, O most High: To shew forth thy lovingkindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night..." Psalm 92:1-2

We had a wonderful fun 4th of July! Annie inspired the idea of a party and we ran with it!





Gabe got really creative with his bean dip for the party! It was tasty too!




My favorite pie to make! Strawberry Rhubarb Custard



Perfecting the strawberry lemonade




Loralei and James spent the day filling up water balloons and the rest of us ate all the food. jk! We had a very fun game of volleyball, and crouquet. Then we had a great time throwing paper airplanes... and the water balloons were flying all day long! (But the back deck and house were safe.)


Last weekend we were over in the valley again. We've been meeting there for Ben, Brendan and Gabe to practice. On Saturday we worked Rudi's coffee shop. That was fun, again!










So many different flavors. This is only half of them. :)




We went to a birthday party at some longtime friends of the Boohers on Sunday. The guys played some songs for everyone. Later Gabe and I went down to the river.




It was beautiful! And the water was a very comfortable temperature!





Time to go!
