Arboretum in summer

we said goodbye to baby Orin before he traveled back to Colorado with his mom & dad...

...while Cole and Luke stay behind with us in Texas to play with their cousins
and stay at Nanna & Poppa's house!

Nate & I took all the kids to the Arboretum for a picnic
and some exploring in the Pioneer Village.

Bella and Violet claimed a house of their own,

and Violet made herself right at home tucking herself in bed.

discovering an insect is always an exciting event

"CHEEEEZZE"

bella's birthday with family

We waited for the Davidson's to come visit before we celebrated Bella's birthday in June. So fun to have Cole, Luke and baby Orin here with Jad & Becky! We had a fun party full of kids and chaos with both grandparents and Kim & Bea, Katelyn & Taylor from Canton too.
