Fun with Friends



Blair, Caleb, Blake and Clara

A couple of weeks ago, we visited with our good friend Kathryn and got to meet the newest addition to their family-Clara. The kids had a lot of fun and Kathryn and I might have finished a conversation-maybe!

The Look


The photographer was able to capture what I call "the look" from Blair.

New Pictures of B&B




Some formal photographs we recently had made.

This and That



We had such a nice weekend. Spent lots of time at the pool. Blair has NO FEAR of the water. I'm going to choose to look at this as a good thing because I really don't think that there would be much I could do about it anyway. In June, we had to coax her to jump in the pool. Now she is actually swimming with her face in the water, coming up to take breaths. Blake loves to run and jump into the pool yelling "cannonball!". On Saturday, it was very hot and we decided to take a drive north to Mammoth Cave National Park. No better place to be than underground where the temperature was a cool 56 degrees! We were unsure how B&B would like it, but they did great. We did the shorter self-guided tour. Didn't have to carry anybody and no whining or complaining. Scott put up a new teeter-totter for the kids on the swing set. Blair decided she was too big for baby swing so we took it down. She loves to swing and says "higher, higher". School starts soon. Blair will be in the two year old class and Blake will be in the four year old class. Can't believe Blake will be in Kindergarten next year. We'll be making the most of this year!
