Summer 2013

It’s hard to believe as I sit to write this blog, that it has been 4-5 months since I have blogged. A lot has changed – my sister got engaged, Taylor finished a great year in Kindergarten, visited our families, Taylor turned 7, we traveled 1400 miles round trip for my sisters wedding through 4 states, we played a lot this summer, naps are shorter, bedtimes are later (not allowing for much time to sit and blog) and ASOM are all wearing undies instead of diapers!

Here are some pictures to highlight the past few months. Now that we are back in a school routine I hope to get back to some more blogging… I will keep you posted!

A wonderful gift we received this summer which got a LOT of use!

Lots of picnics, swimming, and time by water!

Big brother turns seven! He lost his second tooth by pulling it out with his remote control car. He also got to celebrate with his friends at Turbo the movie in the theater. This was the first theater experience for ASOM. Fun, fun, fun!

Celebrating Taylor, Trevor, and Uncle Chad’s birthdays!

Visiting Auntie, Uncle Chad and Nede at Meme and Grandpa’s house. We even made it to Home Depot day on our visit.

I think our trip to Auntie and Uncle Chad’s wedding deserves a blog of it’s own. Look for that to come soon. Hopefully not in 4-5 months, maybe 4-5 days.

Happy Fall!
