Summer Snapshots!

Summer, you were so good to us. So good, in fact, that I'm going to try to condense you into one lengthy little post. Full of snapshots and sweet memories, because even though you tried to go by fast, I'm holding on to them as long as possible.
And these days with my memory 'as long as possible' typically means through lunch.

Let's begin.


The Beach Trip.


 
 
 
 
 
Dinner With Friends.
And Lasertag.
 
 

 
Do you have friends in your life that you really, actually do life with? That's these faces for me.
We laugh. We encourage. We talk deep. We get real. We fear not.
 
And we make fun of each other when we see how sweaty and out of breath we are after half a game of lasertag.
 
 
 
Weekend Trip to New Albany.
 

There's something about taking the girls to Aunt Heather and Uncle Bo's that just makes the heart happy. The South. Family. Fishing. Sunshine. Yes please.

 
 
 
Baba's VISIT!!!
 
Icing on the cake? Four generation lunch.
The women in this picture make up so much of who I am. Blessed.

 
 
 
Exploring the Great Outdoors.
 
 
The girls and I have really enjoyed getting out for girl walks. While Ben is away we go play :)


 
 
 
She Turned Two.
 
 
My cherub-faced blonde-headed baby, I blink and she is a sharp as a tack, sweet spirited and energetic toddler. She's hilarious and smoochable and we adore her.


 
 
 
Outdoors. Ball caps. Popsicles. Repeat.

 
 
 
 
Good Eats.
 
May there always be good eats. While Baba was here we drove down to Miller's Grocery. In Middle Tennessee? Go there. It's a favorite.
 






 



Two Toddlers on Bikes.
 
The inside of my house may be a mess. But the outside is so much more fun sometimes!
 

 
 
 
 
Understanding Your Food Source.
 
 
Or as Kaelyn called it, "Really fun. But very, very stinky."
A Saturday trip to Batey Farms for the BEST sausage and bacon around.
Bonus? They have big pigs and baby bigs, and Wilbur.
Yes. Wilbur from Charlotte's Web, the movie. (But he's not so little any more).


 
 
 
 
Friends. Fire. S'mores. Summer.





Splash Pads!

 
 
 
 
And that's how we did summer.
 
With love :)
