 Happy 65th Anniversary Ma-Maw and Pa-Paw C! 

Play date with Valerie

It's a good thing we have a King size bed! Everyone decided it was a good spot for snuggling up and watching a movie.

We are heading to Clay's work today for Family Fun Day. Julia and I made Minions (from Despicable Me) to take for dessert.

July 29

We had a play date with some friends from church/co-op. One family has 7 kids and the other has 3, so combined there were 14 kids. That makes for some fun! Only 5 of them were girls, so Elliott was in little boy heaven.

 Here's a group shot of everyone (minus 3 who weren't at the reunion).

 

 We had a family devotion time this morning before leaving the reunion. We had alot of fun! The kids did not want to go home. 

We wore this little man out this weekend. 7pm and he is crashed on the couch!

 Day #2 of the reunion.

Elliott and Brendan are 3 months apart. They had SO much fun together this weekend!

 Kat and Christiana

 Julia and Lydia

 The adults played a card game while all the kids swam.

 Nonna singing Lucy to sleep for nap time.

 

 

 While Nonna, Lucy, and Kat were having a rest, we went on a hike with Bo-Kyoung and Lydia.

Later in the day we gathered for a Minute to Win It game time with the whole group.

After a rough night in the hotel (Elliott and Lucy have colds, and Elliott whined/wimpered every 20-30 minutes ALL night long), we headed to the family reunion. You can't escape the noises when you are all sharing a hotel room. Luckily, the girls slept through the noise. Clay and I? Not so much.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The first night of the reunion, the kids played, we grilled out, and the girls got to have a slumber party with Lydia and Christiana. It was a fun day!

July 25

We went to Holiday World today with Mamaw Pat and Jonathan. The weather was great (80 degrees)! Afterwards, Mamaw and Jonathan went home and we stayed at a hotel on our route to a family reunion.

 153 days until Christmas. Santa told us so!

Happy Birthday Bapaw Rick! 

We're praying that your back feels better ASAP!

Tracy and the boys came over this morning for a play date. For once, Elliott was in the majority!

 

Julia the baby whisperer

July 23

Clay and I took advantage of only having two kids and went out to eat last night. 

After dinner we went to the park to play for awhile. It was funny watching Elliott be the big brother. Usually he is overshadowed by Julia and Kat, but he took his job seriously making sure Lucy was being looked after.
 

Jonathan is here today and hanging out with the little ones. He's such a good kid.

Mamaw Pat took Julia and Kat to the lake this morning. Elliott, Lucy, and I met our friends Chris and Michelle and their kids at All About Kids to let the kids burn off some energy. Clay and I were good friends with Chris in college (a million years ago). They live in Vermont now, but are in town visiting family. It's always fun to catch up with old friends!
