Let the Summer Shenanigans Begin!



This summer was a blast!  Here are some highlights from our amazing time in Maryland!

Hanging out with friends at the Rio, riding the carousel, running through mazes, and of course...peeing in bushes and on trees (no pictures of the last one!)


Asher and Seth admiring Grandpa and his handy work.  These boys want to grow up to be engineers, just like their Grandpa!  
Anytime Grandpa had a job to do, Seth and Asher could be found nearby soaking it all in.  



Because of unseasonably cool summer temperatures, we were able to take lots of hikes! 

We love cousin time!






Attempts at fishing for minnows :)




We celebrated the 4th of July with some good friends up in Poolesville.  They had a great show, and Asher loved every minute of it.  As Shauna watched Asher "ooo" and "ahhh" over the fireworks, and see that look of pure awe take over his face, she definitely experienced a moment of motherhood, and the joy it fills us with as we watch our children enjoy the magic of childhood and the world around them.  She even recorded this on her phone, but Asher loved the video of the fireworks so much, that he kept asking to watch it!  And much to all of our dismay, he accidentally deleted it :( Sad day!

Love this kid!


Hanging out, getting ready for the fireworks to begin! (Not shown - oodles of funnel cake! yummy!)



Let the magic begin!


We were also able to celebrate Grammy's birthday with lemon meringue pie - or at least what we thought was lemon meringue pie...it wasn't, and it didn't taste good.  We got a refund :)

Happy Birthday, Grammy! 



Other random cousin moments :)

Hanging out by the pool...


Eating breakfast, while watching the ipad...


Seth teaching Asher to put his hand over his heart while the American flag was rising and the national anthem was playing.  Way to instill American pride in our boy, Seth!


And of course, creative play...


Loving it!


Love these guys!
