Cousin's Wedding

I didn't get any pictures of my cousin (the bride) at the wedding, but I did get some fun photos of the kids.  It was a beautiful ceremony.  Everything was perfectly summer-esque and full of fresh flowers.  My favorite part happened the instant the bride appeared and the wind picked up just enough to scatter cotton from the cotton trees.  It created a perfect atmosphere for a brides procession.

Yup, I have the coolest neighbor. EVER.

Summer Catch-up

 Grandma and Grandpa's house was a BLAST!

I love the above two pictures because it truly shows the kids busy.  They are constantly going from inside to outside and outside to inside!

ahhhhhh!

Grandpa and Kael on Fathers Day.

Water Fun!  I've discovered that Silas is an excellent poser!  I get the camera out and say cheese and he instantly turns his eyes to me and says cheese too!

My sister came to visit and the cousins had a fabulous time.  They all said they were thirsty so I told them to drink out of the sprinkler!

shhhhhh... peek

Adam saw this brand new baby deer at work a few days ago. Such big eyes and so cute.

Mud, Parade, and Sunshine

We've had a lot of rain recently therefore this mud was not difficult to make.  I had to really convince Kael to get all muddy and still he did not like it. He was a champ and posed for some pictures for me anyway.

Once the mud dried he didn't think it was so bad.  Kael went directly into the shower once he came inside!

This parade was full of cars, cotton candy, balloon swords, and sunshine!  What more could a little boy ask for?

 Yesterday was too nice to stay inside, so we spend the majority of our Sunday outside digging in the dirt and jumping on the trampoline!

Memorial Day

I realized I hadn't visited my grandparent’s graveside since the funeral services. So this weekend I took the opportunity to see it. What a beautiful veteran's cemetary . Flags were put up on every grave and the driveway was lined with even more. I loved being there and I think the boys had a good time too. We took lots of pictures so that we don't forget what it looks like and so my family that lives far away can remember too!

 

Sunday Walk

Every time we let Kael ride his bike, "a long way from home," he says a lot of  I love you's and tells me how much he likes riding.

Unveiling of the freshly picked dandelions.

Why won't they ever look at me when they sit for a picture together?

Silas likes to tease us by peeking out over every edge when he is high on the play structure.

Weeeee!

My boys give the best hugs, EVER!
