Summer Catch Up


I am so behind this summer! I wanted to catch up tonight before my sweet nephew is born tomorrow! I'm sure I will want to a do a post on him later this week. It was so hard to narrow down pictures for the blog. I have over 500 from the summer. We have been on the go nearly everyday. If we haven't been out of town we've been at the pool. Wendi and I have taken a couple of trips to Alabama this summer. We load all six kids in the Yukon and don't stop til we get there. We have had so much fun spending time there this summer we have done lots of shopping and stayed up late to play cards. It's super nice to have Jonathan's parents help for the week. It's like a mini vacation.

At Country's BBQ in Auburn

Lil' Art wanted to get his picture with Jon David on this Tiger.

Jon David's first Birthday party was a light blue and white cupcake theme. His cousin Tinsley made the cupcakes. She is starting a little business. Her cupcakes really taste amazing and look awesome!


I just love this picture of Jon David with most of his cousins.



He loved his cupcake.


Jonathan's sweet brother Brad, his wife Amy and their 2 boys Brandon and Kody came Jon David's birthday weekend to help celebrate. The evening of Jon David's party we (along with the Knights) took them to The Mast General Store and also down by the river walk. We had the best time!

The kids playing at the River Walk


That weekend was also Father's Day weekend. We had bruch with Jonathan's parents, grandparents, and the Knights.
A few days later we left to go camping. It was a crazy week. It rained the first 3 days. Jon David just wanted down. We had to get very creative. We spent lots of time in the camper and the van.

Dad loved getting to spend the week with our sweet boy.
He loved riding around in his wagon.
Everything is more difficult camping. Ex. boiling water for a bath.
I love this picture of our family at the cascades.



Sweet Jayden on 4th of July

Wendi had us over and the kids played in their inflatable, the guys passed football, and we grilled out. It was the perfect 4th!



Mid-July we took Jon David on his first beach trip. We went to Panama City with Jonathan's family.
He like playing in the sand the first day.


Two of my favorite things we did were:1. went with Jonathan's parents to this neat place with tons of stores and ate at the Backporch. 2. Jonathan went on a date to Seaside to see a concert. We had the best time. I am dying to go back there!
