I've been off the blogging train for a while now, and overwhelmed with the thought of updating you on the entire summer we just lived! Instead of giving you a lot of details in word, I've decided to share with you photos we snapped as life was lived...what an incredible summer it was!
This is the first of a few posts about our summer and the way God breathed life into us as a family.
As soon as we arrived home from our trip to Illinois, we packed up and started hopping from house to house visiting our family...the perfect way to welcome summer!
First up...A week at Gramma and Gramps house!
Lots and lots of SWIMMING!
She LOVES the water, swimming most of the time without floaties (and our help!)
Flying with Daddy...
Best buds...
They always want us to come in and get our hair wet!
Somehow that meant we were fully committed :) 
Watching Cole flip...
My little pumpkin taking a break...
My sweet cousin visited us from Nevada :)
My wonderful aunt came for a swim :) Everyone LOVES Auntie Ine!
The sweetest little presents a birthday girl could ask for...
VBS at Gramma and Gramps church! The kids look forward to it every year...
Rylee clapped along as they sang...
Gramma taught the pre-school class this year...the Purple Porcupines!
A visit with Babi and Deda (reading the comics!)
Watching my grandpa's "Gilligan's Island" episode...he was really in it!
The kids LOVED seeing Deda on the screen!
We only live an hour away from my family, but sometimes you have to be the most intentional with those who live the closest to you! We were SO thankful for this week of intentional time with my family, the amazing week of VBS, visits from my cousin, aunt, and time spent with everyone we love! We are BLESSED!
Thank you, Gramma and Gramps for an amazing week together!
I'll leave you with a little bit of "normal' from my silly, best friend boys :)
