Memories of the summer so far.......





































This has been such a great summer! We have had so many fun adventures. Here are some of my fave highlight moments so far.
















  • The car ride to MI. We had such a good time and laughed so much (mainly at Allen but don't tell him).








  • Just spending that precious time with no outside distractions on the way here.








  • Alex's face at Lego land.








  • Long walks in the State park with Jake in his jogging stroller.








  • Spending time with my cousin Kathleen. It has been so much fun sharing some mommy moments.








  • Watching Jake interact with Jonah and Issy.








  • Watching Alex make memories with his cousins. He will treasure this time forever. I know I did.








  • Tubing with the boys. I never laughed as hard as I did when Alex and I were on the tube and Papa was trying to know us off.








  • Spending time with my mom. I really miss her during the year.








  • Spending time with Ninny.








  • roasting marshmallows in the new outside fireplace








  • watching Alex catch fireflies








  • Night swimming with Alex and cousins








  • Watching my dad bond with the boys








  • Having Jake wipe my face with his shirt because I had ice cream on it.








  • Watching my baby go off to camp for the first time.








In the words of Alex, this is the best summer ever! I know we have many more adventures ahead of us.

I loved seeing the pictures! The new hair is so cute! You all look like you are relaxed, and having a good time, just reading your blog made me long for the days when I created those lazy summer day memories. I can only imagine what a peaceful foundation this is giving the boys as they weave themselves into the family's summertime traditions! We miss ya here, but I'm just so glad for your summers in paradise!
