4th

I hope everyone had a fun and safe 4th of July. Ours was spent at home BBQ'ing with the kids and being with great friends.




I had my sweet sister babysit for us the night before and she decided that she wanted to spend the rest of the weekend with us. I'm glad she stayed, Lexi has a blast with her, and Jared loves to tease her endlessly. I just love having her around.



Us girls hanging out watching the kids. I couldn't ask for a better group of friends. Love these girls. I was lucky enough to meet one of these girls at the pool 2 summers ago. Our kids always played together and we would just talk and talk. We met up again last summer and same thing. We decided to have our husbands meet and they got along great. We have a blast with them and their girls. My other friend Lilly, lives 2 houses down. Jakson and her son are the best of friends. We have gotten together and BBQ on the 4th for 5 yrs now. And my sister....what can I say? She's the best. There is one family that is missing from our fun. Hopefully one day we will be lucky enough to have them back with us. In the meantime, we can wistfully look at their pictures....swimming with dolphins, on the Big Island of Hawaii! Miss you guys.
