Funtime in July

Happy 4th of July!

This picture cracks me up.

In July, we went on our annual family vacation with the Davis and McMichael families. This year we opted for Galveston.  We rented a beautiful house in Pointe West - we will definitely return!  Sadly, I don't have many pictures.  Most of the pictures below came from either Cindy's or Jessica's blog.

The kids played outside while we were getting settled into the house. 





The next morning we went to the beach. Thankfully the rain stayed away and we had a perfect overcast day.
 
 
Sarah was not fond of the salty water!
 

Sandcastles and people were constructed

Abby, Jacob, Sarah, Reagan, and Joe

Joe and Jacob played some baseball while John and Jason grilled burgers.
 

Later, the kids played some Wii....much much later the adults played - very glad there are no pictures of THAT!

This is the best picture we could get of all the kids





Love this picture of me, Cindy, and Jess. What great friends I have!

Vacation time in Missouri

In June, we rented a minivan and drove up to St Louis. Buster even rode along!


We went to a Cardinals game - it was "Ice Cream Sunday" at the ballpark and Sarah was very upset the ice cream was a Popsicle!





We spent some time at Uncle David's pool



Went to the zoo





Went to Grant's Farm
