Where did July go???

Seriously, didn't July just begin? And it is ALREADY August. Lord, please help me to STOP & smell the roses. Enjoy the roses, that is.

Thought I would throw in a bunch of random pics from this past month to capture a little bit of it all. While such a blur, we did enjoy a LOT.

 Fourth of July at St. Alban's. Charlie & Lori's home (Chuck's dad). A day at the pool, back at the house for dinner and a wonderful fireworks display. Was wonderful to spend time with my sister and the family!

Over the 4th, Scott bought some fireworks for him and Ads to do together. This is Addy enjoying a sparkler in our driveway.

We have definitely enjoyed some PLAY-DATES this summer. Here is Ads with Reese & Rowan.

 Ty & Brody...always fun with the DuKate boys. :)

PaPa & NaNa came for a quick visit to give G his birthday gifts.

 Adeline loving on Baby Brylee & G loving his new drums!

 Never a dull moment with these two. ;)

Mama went to Steve Miller Band & Journey concert with her high school friends, Lisa, Jen & Heather. Truly, just like old times. SO. MUCH. FUN.

Fun date night with the Strebe's...as usual. We have really loved our monthly date nights with these guys. 

 It's awesome to have friends that Scott connects as well with Jason as I do with Nancy...love them!

A short, but fun weekend in J-Love.

Grandma Snodgrass, Adeline, Kim, Britney & Brylee.

 Adeline playing a puzzle on the iPad with her Great-Grandma Leivian.

 Great-Grandma Snodgrass playing around with Lil' G.

Addy & Lexi enjoying their blow up pool! So what if we're a little redneck. ;)

 A new summer adventure: Purina Farms. 

 Fun for the kiddos and the dog show was pretty cool!

Always fun getting a pic of all 4 of us! :)

Grandma took Ads on a date to the movies. She loves the one on one time!

A lovely evening out at Hendel's Market with John & Carla.

 The Lord is definitely who brought us in relationship with these two and we couldn't be happier about it.

Mommy & Daughter Date! Seussical at The Muny with Brittany & London.

 The girl's first time there. They were able to stay awake even though it was late. Super fun!

Last, but definitely NOT least...Graham's last day at United Services.

Teachers: Janet & Kristine. Both instrumental in Graham's development while at US. He started at 18 months old - just Fridays for 2 hours. Then went to Building Blocks at 2 years old on Mon / Wed from 9-12 both days. This boy was wore out when he left school, but in a good way. They loved him while teaching him new things all the time. We loved this place and loved his teachers. Definitely bittersweet for him graduate when turning 3 this summer...

Off to the next adventure...
