Our summer thus far...

 We have had a fantastic summer so far! I know lots of kids are back to school but we have a couple weeks to go so we are in full summer mode over here still.
 (if you haven't noticed...writing is not a strong point of mine. but I do have cute kids...so pics of kids is what you get!)

We started off the summer with lots of trips to the YMCA pool..

Super fun visitors the Rogers came and stayed a couple days before they headed off to Sandbridge..

Many days spent at the beach...the thing I will miss the most when we move.


A couch on the beach?

Sadie turned 6 on July 20th..

My Grandma was in S.C. so she drove up for the day to surprise Sadie on her B-day..

Went out with friends for her birthday dinner..

Two days later we hopped on a plane and flew to AZ!  It was kind of a last minute trip but it was one of the best! 
Dinner at Cheesecake with the girls...

We swam just about every single day. My SIL parents have this very fun pool with a full on pirate ship...among other fun things.

Trip to the lake with Grandpa T..

This pic doesn't look like much but you are actually looking at a miracle.  Ronan is actually on the tube in the lake!!! He is the biggest weeny so this was HUGE!

Drove over to California for my brother and fam's sealing. It was so great to have all my family together (minus kids) and see how happy Justin is. I'm so grateful for Justin and Kristina and the choices they have made. 
While in Cal. the weather didn't get over a mere 75 degrees. I was dying! I always knew Cal. had great weather but this was unheard of! Noah is now seriously considering moving us to Cal....I wouldn't argue with that idea :)

It was so great to see Vanessa who has been living in Mexico. And I finally got to see Cory and Jessica's cutest fattest baby ever!

Dinner with my most favorite Chandler people in the world. Some of them may have moved from the greatest street ever but I still love them A LOT!
Met up with our VA school friends who were in AZ for an internship. Our kids are best of friends so it was so fun to hang with them. They were even on our flight home!!!...which made for a very easy flight.

And thats that! Next on the agenda is organizing rooms and gearing up for school. My kids can not WAIT!

This guy is loving his no teeth. I'm dreading the awkward giant buck teeth stage. I had it big time when I was little!!
