July in a nutshell

Well July has been a month of celebration. We have 3 birthday's in our immediate family and 3 others in our extended family! Reis turned 15, Owen 9 and Scott...well, does it matter?
We've had a busy but fun month.

My nephew Jack came for a visit. He stayed at our house for 5 days. He joined right in with all the boys!
Owen and his buddies! Great party day for water games and slip n slide!
Scott has made a commitment to take each of our boys on a 'pre-teen' trip. Just the two of them. Hudson chose to go to an amusement park so even though his birthday was in April, they waited until summer. It was a great time of bonding for them, having fun but also talking about some very important things from purity to making Godly choices in his upcoming teen years. What a great memory for them!
Another part of July has been house projects. I still need to take a picture of the finished patio but we've spent a lot of time and sweat on this area of our home. We have been dreaming of this since we moved in. I'm so thankful for my husband and his hard work.
I love it! Pictures to come!
