Happy 4th!

We celebrated our nation's birthday by hosting Lorraine's family, and lots of silliness.

June brought us some hot days, and Cooper's achievement ceremony, celebrating his last year in preschool!  (It also brought us a new nephew, courtesy of Scott and Jodi.)  And we were happy to host cousins Rita, Joy, Ted, and Connor!

After returning from Disney, we settled back into our usual hectic life.  We played outside, and we enjoyed the not-so-hot spring that we had.
