Goodbye June!

As it usually does, the summer is just flying right by. I'm not sure what happened to the month of June, but it was over in a hurry! Between VBS and family in town, it's been a fun kind of busy!

 Eli, Chase and Jacob spent about 3 hours in this tent in Nana's living room one rainy afternoon. I know these are the sweet things they will remember about growing up together!
 We've made a lot of progress around the new house, one of which being a better organized garage space. I often pull my car out of the garage on rainy days, that way the kids have more room to play. They love it!
 I came out last week to find Layla perched on the tricycle. She's one determined little lady!
 And a tired one too! She's still trying to cope with only one nap a day, poor thing!

Last week we had a fun visit with Mimi and Aunt Liz. They came and stayed with us for 4 nights. The kids were happy & well entertained, and mommy got lots of shopping/girl time! Liz and I spent A LOT of time and energy on sprucing up our new place. It was great having my interior decorator here in person! 

Our biggest project was refinishing our wooden adirondack chairs. They were pretty weathered looking. It's amazing what a coat of paint can do! We fell in love with the very first color we picked. It was exactly what we were looking for!

Eli wanted to be right in on the painting action. He did a great job!

 Who's the better fake sleeper? :)
 This is what a hot and tired one year old looks like! We left right before she resulted to a nap on the slide :)

 We went out to our favorite burger restaurant, and it never disappoints! 

 Hands down, the BEST milkshakes ever.

We were sad to say goodbye, but looking forward to seeing them in VA before too long!
