So far this summer...

I can't believe it's already July 30th. This summer has flown by. We went to Utah for Brianne's wedding, Donny too. The kids and I ended up staying a few extra weeks, we just can't seem to stay less than a month once we get there. On the way back to Houston, my little brother Jacob was with us. Such a nice plane ride, thanks Jakey. Mary and James decided to come for the 4th of July. When we arrived in Houston, they were already there. Surprise!! What trickster's they are. Sarah flew in the the next day. The following few days were spent cramped into our little apartment having the time of our lives. We had a blast. My poor Mommy was so sad. She could hardly stand the thought of us all having fun together without her there. It wasn't the same without you Momma, you either Dad. Unfortunately they had to leave a few days later. They took Jacob with them and headed back to Midland. Sarah stayed with us in Houston. We are so glad that she was able to come and play with us for a few weeks. We miss her badly, especially Sophi and Gabe. "Where's Lala, I miss Lala." She is there play toy and it was so nice to have her here to help. We love ya La. Also this summer, we closed on the purchase of our first home, yeehaw!! We are thrilled to finally have a place of our own. No more sharing walls, no more calling the police at 2:00 am in the morning because it sounds like your upstairs neighbors are bowling, no more common areas filled with dog feces. Just us. We couldn't be happier. My mom and sister are coming to help with the move. I am so spoiled, I know. It is such a blessing to have so much family support. I'm glad that even though I live away from everyone, we still have the means to see each other so frequently. Also, i'm 7 months pregnant, and pretty much worthless. So thanks mommy and sis. Glad you guys love us so much. Here are a few highlight pics of our summer. There are so many so I really had to narrow it down. For all those looking at the pics, I want to remind you that I am pregnant and feelin crappy. I tried to be in as few pictures as possible, but alas I could not escape them all. More adventures to come, and still lots more hot summer left.
