Then and Now

ZOO!

We went to the National Zoo on Sunday with good friends. What a fun day…even though it was 200 degrees. Jack saw elephants, tigers, snakes, alligators and more! He’s especially interested in alligators lately, so that was a favorite. In the afternoon we got caught in a thunderstorm and Jack kept asking me to ‘turn off’ the rain. Ah, if it was only that easy!

All the kids in one shot...not easy!

NC Vacation

Susan and Steve got married on the Beach. What a beautiful bride!! Susan is Andrew's cousin. Their wedding was the inspiration for our family vacation to NC in June.

We're almost there...thank god the rings are tied onto the pillow!

We were honored that Susan and Steve asked Jack to be the ring bearer at their wedding NC last month. You'll see here, Mommy is helping down the aisle.

NC Aquarium

While in NC, we went to the aquarium. Jack got to see sea urchins and sting rays.

A rare quiet moment of reflection.

Grant and Jack had a blast digging holes with Andrew.

Beach Fun!

Now where are my legs? I know I left them around here somewhere.

Happy 4th of July!

Check out my truck!

We took a vacation to the Outer Banks of NC in the middle of June. Andrew's cousin was married on the 14th on the beach.
