Red, White, and Blueberry!

We went blueberry picking in East Texas. Whitni Parker and Asher jumped in our car and we followed Jenn and Sam out to Edom. We arrived at this adorable, picturesque farm early in the morning on a perfect, slightly cloudy day. We picked for about 15 minutes- enjoying ourselves- when Lauren decided it was too hot and too hard to pick anymore and pretty much fell apart. But we did manage to get a pretty big bucket full. $40 in gas, a bag full of illegal fireworks from a roadside stand, and several large muffins made for pricey berries, but I would highly recommend the trip and plan to go next year.

Finally!

After several days of Brad complaining about hair itching his ears, I cut the boys' hair. Look at these handsome dudes!

Big First Graders!

Brad and Zach are officially first graders! School is out for the summer and a big part of me is panicking. I wish I were a mother who was excited for the time of wonder and exploration that the summer brings. That is my goal this week- find the excitement! I think I lost it with my keys and my favorite lip gloss.

Sweet Fairies

I coaxed my cute friend Whitni Parker to come over to help me take pics of the girls. She is a fun and creative photographer who has taken loads of pics of our family. I needed her help figuring out the manual setting on my camera. This was a collaborative effort- heavy on her part. Thank you, Whitni!

Pudding Anyone?

Abby enjoyed her pudding a little too much...
