July

This was our July! 

Fourth in the driveway (Zach was with friends); Charlotte's neighbor friend did sparklers with us. 

I visited Jen for a couple of days.

Charlotte went to the clip n climb.

I took Zach to Ikea for dorm stuff.

Charlotte painted and we hung organizers in her closet.

Frank and I spent a weekend in Pittsburgh.

Charlotte and Gabe attended band camp.

Charlotte and I went to one of her favorite restaurants.
