Andrew Charles

We have a new member of our family: Andrew Charles! Our newest cousin/nephew was born on June 9th. We went to meet him a week later and he was content as could be...and super cute. I wasn't sure if Marin realized he was in the room until she finally finish gobbling some tortilla chips and started chanting "I hold the baby. I HOLD THE BABY!"



Katie wasn't far behind...


Then we tried to get the whole crew. Not the easiest task....


Notice Andrew snoozes the entire time! He's a smart boy!


Welcome Baby Drew!

Friends, Family and Fun

As the weather became warmer during May and June we've been busier and busier. But I have been taking pictures as we've spent some time with friends and family.Here is what we were up to in May and early June.

We've enjoyed some ice cream while watching the cows and goats at a local farm.


A long visit from Uncle Jeff.


Bounced around at our neighbor's birthday party.


Had our annual Memorial Day get together with the Herolds.



We went to cousin Ella's 6th birthday party. Doesn't look like her cast slowed her down at all.



Here we are at the Memorial Day parade to salute our local veterans, past and present.  Nothing says thank you to our military than Crackerjack hats, party beads and whirly flashlights.
 

A serious wave to the people marching in the parade.


Don't forget our backyard! Abby isn't the best catcher. Her stance needs some major work but she tries.


We went to cousin Adalyn's baptism and reception. Katie getting a horseshoe throwing lesson from Steve.
