Summer moments

A couple months ago, we were at the temple, and I bumped into the sister of one of my best friends from growing up in Atlanta. She lives in Maryland, and she let me know that my friend Emily would be visiting in July. So one Saturday, we drove down to Wilmington to the children's museum there and met up with Emily and her 6 kids plus 3 of her sister's kids. It was so, so fun to see Emily again! It had been so long, and we loved connecting about life and family. Love her!

Beau decided to use his hard earned money to buy a Fitbit. Well, cheaper brand. He's absolutely loved it and is taking great care of it.

Beau wanted to make "pretend soup" for dessert one night. It's a favorite from a kids' cookbook Gogo gave the boys a few years ago. It was so good, we asked him to make it again a few nights later when we had the missionaries to dinner.

This was a recent drawing David did of a man. I think it's Daddy. It's amazing to me to all of a sudden see real form and control come into little ones' drawings. He asked Beau to help him add the tongue, but the rest was his!
