we have been home from our summer vacation a few weeks now. the trip was very fun & very wild, so a bit of normal life is welcomed with open arms.
a little picture recap of our trip::
hours & hours in the van. all 3 rascals did amazing. i had prepared a lot to keep us busy:: mapping the trip, making a story "book" of our trip, decorating buckets (which led to bucket ball, bucket high heels, bucket echoes...they were a hit!), puzzles, crafts, games.

i convinced my older sister to let me cut her hair...here is before & after. i think it turned out great & it was so fun.
Love the whole post. Especially love Glenna's hair. Yay Glenna for trusting you!!! Also love that the highlights in Lena's eyes are tracking together. At least in that picture. Love Anders's crazy amazing grin and Hazel's exuberance. Love the legs kicked up as Lena relaxes. So glad ya'll managed the trip. I know it was just a "venue change", but how great for "venue changes"!!
ReplyDeleteI've looked at these photos a couple times now, just pouring over them is such a blessing. I love all those little critters of yours. What a special gift y'all are giving your kids...they will treasure these crazy summer memories their entire lives.
