Kicking Off Summer 2015

We are super excited that summer is here. We've created our "summer bucket list" and are ready to get started on it. I am feeling like one lucky mom to be home during June and July with the kids. Week one is off to a great start.....

Last day.....School's out for summer!!!! 
Last day of school dinner celebration at Oklahoma Joe's
(Yes, she's still pretty pumped about summer) 
This little girl polished off her hotdog, part of her brother's
sandwich, and a whole bunch of fries.
Happy 2nd Birthday Morgan! 
Trevor, he's an expert at fighting fires and blowing bubbles -
loving time with good friends at a fun birthday party
