Mt. Monadnock

 2.3 miles up,

2.3 miles down...

no big deal right?

That's what I thought.

 I would have never taken my family on this hike if I had known what it was going to be like.

But then again, I would have missed out.

 Cabub was amazing.

He is one tough 2 year old.

 I love that Daniel packed a blanket and a hard cover fact book...

Just in case.

 But we made it to the top.

And then we made it down.

I am so proud.

And maybe we cheered and did a victory dance once we got to the summit.

Kate Goes Sailing

The water taxi driver is totally photo bombing this.

I love the smell of ocean.

I love the wind and the sea splash.

I love showing Kate all the places I love.

James' Selfies

I love finding photo gems like these when I look through my phone.

Breathtaking

I think a well-weeded garden is so lovely.

I love having a garden.

All those plants started as little seeds.

Amazing!

Fishing

Ready for a Swim

Caleb brings all the essentials to the pool....

including his cowboy boots.

That's my boy!

I Love Summer

Independence Day

Nature's Bounty

 There is nothing more delicious than

sticky, sun ripened strawberries smeared on

little cheeks and fingers.

Kisses for Kate

 She is such a little angel.

She is perfect.

She has stolen all our hearts.

And, she sucks her thumb.

How cute is that?!?!?!
