Summer luvin...

We had the best week with Daddy!
It was so wonderful to have time together as a family.
We took the kids to their very first movie on the bigscreen...
Went to the beach, twice!
Gobbled popcorn and icecream sandwiches all week
and spent lots of downtime at home, just enjoying our family.
We all needed it. It's been years since Daddy has taken a vacation with us...
And we miss him terribly today!

Uncle Jay and Aunt Heidi invited us to join them at the beach last night...

Little Miss. lovin the dirt, as always...
























Sun Bonnet Sue...
























Some poor little guy had left these action figures behind....

Can you feel the love people?
























I think Mama had better get the boy some of his own next time we're in town!
























Family Fued...
Gwyneth was so mad that "Rowie splashed me!"
She took it so personally and is still griping about it...


















I'm so proud of these boys. They are the most extreme opposites,
but they've really learned to love each other...
























The fab. 5...





















I love evenings at the lake.
It was so peaceful.
My babies are actually starting to really enjoy life
and I can feel my spirit taking a huge sigh of relief
as the marathon I've been running for the last few years
finally slows down just a bit...

Yay! These are so cute! We all had a great time last night. Thanks for joining us and inviting us over after!
I, of course, love the ones of Jude and his beloved spiderman.

But my absolute favorite is of Camden and Adam. I just love it. It is just sweet to me.

We went to the beach last night too! Only we went to city beach. I love the last picture with Gwyn's little buns sticking out! Too cute! I think parenthood keeps getting more and more fun!

I have such a blast with all the kids on sundays- I even wish I had more time with them all!! Yesterday was especially fun to have Rowan & Adam, everybody plays so well together. They all have such differant personalities, but still enjoy doing & playing the same things!! (I.e Flying high in the sky or Feed Miss Britani Cake & Icecream- I had enough imaginary food yesterday to survive a week- they just kept making it so I just kept eating it :)!!)
