Dear June, Where did you go?

Although the cobwebs and dust that have accumulated on ye ol' blog might indicate otherwise, June blew past in a whirlwind of busy, and I cannot seem to wrap my mind around the fact that July is here.

I sat down this morning thinking that I would catch up on a few of June's happenings only to find that my camera battery is dead.

Of course!

Perhaps at some point I will be able to reflect on all of the crazy that has been our summer thus far, but until then, I would like to bid June farewell with this picture of Emma's Fourth of July dessert:

Sadly, this would be the only picture I have of our celebration! Would anyone like to chime in on what this might say about me as a person?

I'm hoping to steal a few pictures from my favorite photographer and recap the festivities later.

Until then, if time could SLOW DOWN, I would greatly appreciate it!

What Not to Wear

Emma's friend, Gabbi, spent the night a couple of weekends ago. They asked me if they could play dress up with my clothes and apparently I had been drinking because I agreed!

It took many wardrobe changes (evidenced by the fact that every article of clothing I own was off of its hanger and in my closet floor) before the girls decided on the perfect outfits to shoot their music video.

I think it's safe to say that Gab finally figured out how to make up for the size difference!

It's NOT My Birthday

Wes emailed this video to me.

He found it on his phone.

It was apparently shot on my birthday.

Today is not my birthday!

My birthday was six months ago.

I don't remember this at all!

But it makes me laugh really hard!


Apparently Wes was being lazy on my birthday.

Bad form, Wes, bad form!

Prayer Requests

I walked into Emma's room to put some clothes away and found these prayer needs listed on her chalk board.

Such a sweetie. It might have made my eyes well up a little!

Emma's Confession

Proof...

...that my children really do love each other!!
