Day to day summer

I can’t believe the summer is over!  We have had such a fun summer! I didn’t do well with keeping up with the blog this summer because we’ve been so busy having fun.  These are the pics I wanted to keep.  Won’t caption them all but they are fun to look at!

Loves home made pizza!

She loves to look at the collage of her birth and pics of her and her birthmom.  She doesn’t grasp that the baby is her but tries to say her birthmom’s name. 

They enjoyed bowling but it was so loud!  We haven’t been back!

LOVES cousin Luke!

Sprinkler fun!

Cassidy’s first dentist appointment!

The Watermelon Queen! 

Fun at a museum in Raleigh with my dad and cousin Luke & Aunt Bethany! We were growling

Fun times at the water park with Grandma Diane

More fun with Luke

Tim & I ended the summer with an overnight to a Bed and Breakfast!  Josh & Bethany watched the girls and the girls loved every minute of it!

Looking forward to a new school year!  Izzy is going into 1st grade and Piper has her last year of preschool!  Will be fun to spend some more one on one time with Cassidy!

Hair!

I love doing Cassidy’s hair!  It is so fun to try new things!  Getting a picture is the hard part!

Can’t wait to try more fun things!

Train ride!

We took a day trip with some friend on the train! 

While there we went to a really cool children’s museum!

Lots of fun!

Family reunion

My mom organized an extended family reunion at my parents house and the beach.  We had a great time! 

My dad rigged up a zip line in the backyard and it was a hit! 

(Tim is not mad in this pic….. he was almost asleep when I came to check on them!)

Fun on my dad’s boat!

Love those little sandy toes!

Wish I had taken more pics but we were too busy having fun!

Fun Fourth 2014

This year we decided on the parade and fireworks at home.  The girls were so excited about the parade!  We made handprint flags the day before

One of the parade participants.

Love my sweet Cassidy girl!

Playing with Daddy

Waiting for the parade to start

Cassidy’s cool star hair!

The parade was a lot of fun!  The girls got candy an flags!

Super excited for fireworks!  We started a little before dark because it gets dark so late!

Fireworks were a hit!  The girls loved picking which one we were doing next.  Everybody enjoyed the sparklers!  We had 65 and used them all!! Happy Birthday America!!
