5 Year Anniversary

 For our anniversary this year, Mikel and I went to a gun range to shoot the Judge.

 

Afterward we ate at Joe's Crab Shack. The king crab was good, but dang, it was painful. Our hands were all soft, wet and salty from the crab boil and trying to break open the crab legs, which had sharp spines on them, was super painful. Oh, and we didn't get a picture, but the crab nachos appetizer, were awesome. Mikel said he would get that as his meal next time.

Cow Appreciation Day

Me and Amy had a good time at cow appreciation this year! All the kids showed their inner cow, and so did me and Amy, we just didn't get a picture of ourselves!

 

 

I absolutely love this picture of Will.

The Islands

 We had a great time on free day!

 

 

Raven loved playing in the water and running around with the girls. 

Saryn was an angel and slept on me the whole time.

Beach time!

Lunch break

Everything was great until a down pour started right after I changed Raven out of her swim suit.

Mikel's Work Party

 Mikel's work has a big picnic every year. Unfortunately it was cold, rainy and gross this year. We still had fun though. Raven and Mikel rode the mechanical bull, Mikel stayed on for 23 seconds, pretty good!

They had some craft stuff for the "kids".

All the kids got a present, Raven got a stuffed pig and Saryn got a towel. There was a ton of good food and a sundae bar. There was also a petting zoo which we avoided in the rain... Hopefully it will be sunny next year!

Summer Fun!

Fourth of July fireworks (sometime in August...)

 

 Playing at the fountain, yes, I did have fun!

Sesame Street Live! Raven had fun for the first half, but was ready to go after intermission.

Pool time.

 

Carr's visit.

 

 Dancing at the Waffle House.

Playing in the rain.

 Jumping on the trampoline at Amy's.

Pulling a fresh grown carrot from Amy's garden.

Kayaking on the lake.

Sister time! They are so sweet together, I love them both so much.
We had a great Summer, and even though I'm going to miss seeing Saryn's chunky thighs, I'm excited for Fall!

*Stay tuned! I've got a lot of catching up to do, I will be filling the gap between Saryn's birth and now throughout the month, aren't you excited??
