Summer Fun

We’ve been having a great summer. Here’s a few peaks at this summer’s joys through Rachael’s eyes. It’s nothing fantastic, just a little summer fun.

we’ve been going for walks a lot

always loving Dakota – who is doing impressively well with Rachael

the new swing (a steal from the thriftstore – not literally)

So that’s pretty much been our summer. We’ve been enjoying church activities like lock-ins and Matt went to Summer camp with the youth (which was hard on Rachael and I but totally worth it to see God work through the youth). We’ve kept busy, but still kept the balance of the precious things in life. And while work still continues to tax me, the countdown continues until January. Matt has been a blessing to me in the midst of this trial called work. But life presses on and the smiles that await me at home are worth the current sacrifice.

Rachael’s getting so big and it blows my mind. She’s been growing like one of those weeds in the backyard that we can’t get rid of no matter our desires or efforts – only wanted. =)
But when it all wears down at the end of the day, she’s still my little cuddlebug.
