Lovin' Summer!

What a gorgeous June we've had! I'm so sad to see it go....I LOVE summer, and while I love every season (well, except that yucky winter muck that seems to drag on through March), summer defintely takes the cake! We've had so much fun seeing friends and family, lazing around by the pool (er, rather, tirelessly chasing the kids around the pool ;), going on long walks, enjoying sunsets at our new favorite winery, and breathing in that warm summer air! Below are some pictures from June with some of our most favorite people!!!

One of my longest and dearest friends, Maria has been in town quite a bit with her two gorgeous girls, Claire and baby Eleanor. We've had so much fun catching up with them. It's been so much fun to get to see them so much!!! Yay!





Tommy's brother and family came in from Texas, and his sister and family came in from Charlotte, and we had such a wonderful time with everyone. The kids love getting to play with all of their cousins--this side of the family can't have a party without a heated game of "something" taking place. So, true to form, an old-fashioned game of baseball occurred, spanning an entire late afternoon/evening...what's a little healthy competition between siblings/mothers/daughters/fathers/sons....Ha! ;)



The kids have so much fun at Mimi and Grandpa's house digging for worms, etc. Mimi even made Connor a "worm garden" (in part so he stays out of all her flower beds and REAL gardens--ha!). They were playing with a slug!!! :)

BFF'S! :)

Sadie, daughter of my dear friend Steph, is two weeks older than Brookie. They are sooo funny together. Here they are "playing" today. Well, really, Sadie was sitting nicely at the table, eating her dinner quietly, while Brookie climbed all over her left-overs and demanded her poor little friend's attention! Ha! I'm excited these two will grow up together, and I'm sure this is only the first of many crazy pics we'll post of the two of them! :)
