June

Its hard to believe today is the last day of June. I'm loving the warm weather. I love being able to slide on my flip flops and go places without 12 other articles of winter clothing. Although, Noah did come with a diaper bag and other accessories, so it still can be slow :) We started off the summer with a surprise anniversary party for my in-laws. It was awesome to see how many people were so excited to bless them (and to see how many people can fit in our home). There's so much that can be said about them, but for now I will sum it up in two words, humility and servanthood. Here's a picture of the happy couple at the end of the night.

The following weekend we had my moms side of the family over. I grew up being with my family ALL the time. On Friday nights we picked an aunt to go visit, and there was always someone to play with. As the family has grown exponentially into 1/4th of the states population, it's much more challenging to get together, but we made an attempt, and I don't regret one loud and hectic minute of it! Lots of people and way too much food...

This past weekend Danny took Noah and I to the AVP tournament in NJ. It was so good to go away for the weekend. I love watching Danny play volleyball. But for once, it was nice to watch it together. As you will see, Noah had the time of his life too...

Thanks for a great weekend dada!
