Here's an update through pictures of our summer so far. It's been a lot of fun! Unfortunately Mike is leaving for several weeks next month. :( But we are planning to fly across the country for a few days to see him while he is in Arizona and to visit our friends, the Newbolds. We'll get to celebrate Avery's 2nd birthday while we're there. Yay!!

Fun in Texas with Mike's family. Doesn't it show on Avery's face? Haha. Daddy may have mistaken her for a bowling ball. :) |

Cousin Josh enjoying the slip-n-slide before a vicious fire ant attack took place. AK's face and ears swelled up so bad I thought we were going to have to take her to the hospital! |

For Avery, the higher the better! |
The kids REALLY enjoyed the live music at the restaurant one night. They danced and laughed and wouldn't leave this guy alone! |
Love you Mom and Dad! |
