Tony zip lining and me with a Monkey. And this monkey I did not give birth to.
We went to the lake whenever possible. My boys are lake boys. They love water, they love boats (actually this is new this summer), they love the seadoos, they love the Polaris...or Pomaris, they love the bunk beds....Well they are alone there. My husband loves to relax and talk with my Dad. They have grown very close this year. As opposite as they are, I think they are just as similar. And I am the same with my Robin. I adore her. It is not for lack of anything that I have realized this. She has so many neat qualities that I admire. And I love to speak to Allie. She is in such a fun place. Freshmen year in college. Wow. I love that she is at a time when I can be a real asset to her when she needs me. Eufala is a place that we love. And this summer I feel like we used it up. Thank God for that opportunity.
The Men
We also had a birthday. A Second Birthday.
Yes he turned 2. Greyson is a big boy. This birthday brought a change in my sweet calm little G. I thought Preston was tough in the terrible 2's but he in fact was an angel. And now that the 2's have hit Greyson, Preston practically glows. But it was a good birthday. Elmo hosted the party at The Ark.

Nana and Bimmo were there.
This is 2.
Also this summer I FINALLY received my baby girl!
Okay...she isn't technically mine. My niece Harper Grace was born in July. She is precious.
And her Cousin's love her. And promise to take good care of her.
And then Tony and I refocused on us....again. Did I mention we had a selfish year?
My husband came home from work one day with tickets to Las Vegas. Just us. It was great. We ate good food and sat in the sun. Yep that is it. Eating and sunning.
Seriously...that is all we did.
Amazing.
Then back to reality. Fall hit.
I am enjoying this year in review. I love that about a new year, wrapping up the old one.
ReplyDeleteAnd I adore you too.
