SUMMER

Summer has been full of adventures if nothing else!

After the birth of our son we went to Eagar to spend time with family. It was a wonderful time where Riley was able to spend lots of time with cousins and me with brothers and sisters. While in Eagar we did a number of things. We spent a lot of time at the park. We also went to a family reunion in Luna where the kids played in the creek and played in the water. We even camped out there and us three girls (Heather, KJ, and myself) visited all night as the younger kids decided not to sleep. We went to Luna for the 24th of July celebrations where we attended the rodeo, had a picnic, and went to the Ranch.

We had so much fun as we celebrated birthdays and memories. We played cards (hand and foot), cried and laughed, fought and played. All the fun things that kids do. Everyone had the chance to get sick in someway and we even survived that. We caught crawdads and floated down the river. Jack, Pat, and Brady went spotlighting with and old friend (AN EXPERIENCE THEY WILL NEVER FORGET).We were able to spend a lot of time with the Brendon Lewis family (our favorite cousins), had KJ’s reception, and make memories with each other. The best part of this wonderful summer was for us older kids to get together and watch our kids interact while we visited. There is nothing more important than family and the love that we have for each other. Given the recent incident with Heather we have come to realize that all the more.We are so very blessed.
Family Dinner-14 of 17 grand kids. Not enough room inside!

Birthday at the park

Smelling the trees of NM. Is it chocolate, strawberry, or vanilla
Playing outside
Movie night and popcorn
24 of July at
best friends. They were always hugging and kissing



Slip-n-slide


they looked like the joker after playing in the mud puddles
Every day there were kids in the mud puddles
Going to the park. How may can you fit in the truck.
