Matthews Alive

We enjoyed going to the festival in Matthews. The boys loved riding everything and had a wonderful time with Grandpa and Grandma!!

Last time at the waterpark

Our second home has now closed for the season. We shall miss thee.

Monkey Joes

One way to beat the heat is to head to an indoor play spot! Here are Quaid, Ryan and Josh having a ball!

We caved

We bought a minivan.
For my thoughts on the matter, check out the Charlotte Parent blog!

Josh's first haircut

It broke my heart to cut all those precious curls, but Lisa did a great job!!

Last summer playgroup

A few shots of our great playgroup at the last summer one.

Beat the heat!

With temps of 105 this summer, we had to find some way to make it through! Here we are with the little Hawks trying to stay cool!

Alek's birthday

Three days later...Alek turned 5 and had a really cool bowling birthday!

Ryan's birthday party

A great time was had by all as we hosted a huge spiderman water party for Ryan's big day! He woke up to a room full of balloons and decorations and we spent the morning as a family.

Here are some shots from his party!
