"The days are long, but the years are short." Ashley brought this quote home from a moms and more group and it hits the nail on the head. Seems like every night we crash land into bed exhausted at the end of a seemingly endless day. But then we look back at pictures from just a few months ago and barely recognize the faces!
Luke turned 1 on May 5th, and Avery just turned 3 on July 26th. Yeah. Wow. We're getting old too, I suppose. With the weather being really hot, we have been spending lots of time in the pool -- hence Avery's green hair. Other than that, there's been some trips to the waterpark, library, zoo, and even a backyard camping trip. We did have a visit from Tina and Alexandria (Justice's mom and sister) in June, and we headed over to Yosemite for the day.The rest of our days are spent cleaning up the house and picking up toys, only to repeat the process 20 minutes later.
Laundry time is always a hit with the kiddos. Who doesn't love a warm load of laundry dumped on top of them, knocking over a nicely stacked pile of clean clothes, and playing in the basket!
