4th of July

For the 4th of July we went to my in-laws' like we always do. There were lots of people and lots of craziness going on. We tried staying for the fireworks, but Hannah was terrified and both girls were completely exhausted so it was kind of a bust. But we still had a good time. Hannah even held a sparkler... for about a minute before one of the "sparkles" landed on her neck and it was the end of the world.

Tragedy has struck! Hahaha

Clara LOVES Ruger!

He's not impressed.

We love Emily, Part 2

Another day this summer, we drove over to Dallas and spent a few hours at Emily's house with the whole family. It was especially fun because Emily had just gotten a new playground in her back yard, AND she had sidewalk chalk. The girls were in hog heaven!

                               Hahaha! I love their faces in this picture! Too funny.

 Clara was obsessed with putting all the chalk in the dirt. I have no idea why.

We love Emily

One day a few months ago, my mom was babysitting my niece, Emily, and had Hannah with her. We decided to meet in the middle and go to the aquarium and to trade Hannah back to me. We had lots of fun! Emily was so cute and just wanted to run everywhere the entire time. And Clara was just getting old enough to be interested in some of the fish. But mostly, we just loved spending time with Emily!

Rainy day fun

Honestly, I had no idea it had been so long since I updated this thing! Jeez, time sure flies when you're having fun. It's been kind of a crazy summer. I still have lots of pictures to upload and such, but oh, well. Here are some pics from one of the few rainy days we had this summer.
