End of a season.

 It's been a whirlwind of a summer. Everyday went faster and faster. Playing outside, pretty much all day. Swimming. Water park. Farmers market. Bike rides. Grilling. Parties. Weddings. Late nights. Open windows. Such a wonderful time for our family.

It's also been one of anticipation. Joe worked so, so hard to be able to join the Navy, and after so many prayers, work, questions, changes, and then more changes, anxiety, papers to sign, more questions, meetings, more phone calls, disappointment, and then huge, huge relief. Of course, I am still biting my nails until he's on the plane, and I won't believe its happening til we are gone

My kids are getting way too big. Bubba is talking like crazy. He also took his binky back, and has to have it to sleep. It is making it easier for him to go down, but it's driving me nuts.

My parents are officially Utah residents, and are loving retirement life so far. Almost as much as Claire is loving be able to have sleepovers with them. So fun to have family dinners, and seeing my dad so relaxed. It's a whole new him!

Anyways, a few pics of life this summer.
