simply wonderful summer days...

ahhh these late summer days... I'm not quite ready for them to end but a bit ready for the busyness to slow down. This has been such a fun summer - this first full summer as a mommy! So fun to try and see things through a child's eyes - what is fun actually is what is most simple~ like playing with the hose in the yard and spending time with family and friends...
Thank you Lord for the wonderful simple things of life!

the reason it takes me so long to vacuum - she thinks it is for rides ;)

 

 

oh how she loves this dog... he plays so nice with her and she climbs all over him

Beach day 2

Emma loooooves the beach!

***Summer Beach Days***

This summer we have had two very fun days at the beach. Emma loves the water and the sand!

The first time we went with girlfriends to Sunset Beach ~~~

Nothing like a nap on the beach...

Yummy sand dollars kept washing up on the beach! A little ingested sand never hurt anybody, right?
