fun in the sun | semiahmoo

Last Tuesday for our field trip we got a group of friends together
and headed to Semiahmoo beach! The kids had a great time spreading out
and exploring. Jordan and his cousins were also super brave and went in
the water! The time went quickly and before we knew it we had to head
home for swim lessons. Will definitely be making another trip there before summer is over!






It was a ton of fun to have all my nephews there!
They all love spending time with one another.









If  you want to flash back check out last years trip!

dirt hill fun

Every Monday night Josh plays softball in Ferndale.
They recently made a dirt hill bike park there. 
Jordan loves to spend the evening there with his cousins
while I watch the games. This Monday we got there a little
early so he showed his route he likes to do. He then wanted me
to do it while he took pictures of me.

weekend lens | busy busy









Josh and I both had to go down
south Saturday. Josh had a one day tournament and then was going to
the Mariner game after. I had a baby shower for a friend.
By the time I got back Saturday night I was tired and sweaty.
No AC for me for the two hour drive there and back.
I drove Michelle over to her friends house to spend the night.
Sunday morning she left to go on a week long trip with them.
That is the longest she has ever been away from home with someone
other then family. I think she was feeling pretty homesick before I even
left her. Jordan and I headed back home for showers and bed.


Sunday I had another baby shower for my good friend Karissa!!
So many babies are coming or have been born this year!


While I was partying it up Josh took Jordan over to swim in my parents pool.
They were still in the process of filling it up with water right out of the hose
so I heard it was cold but felt good. I will give it a few days to warm up before I jump in.
thanks mom for the pictures :)



We were all in bed pretty early Sunday night.
Jordan's head hits the pillow and he is out quick.

This week is looking to be pretty busy too.
Jordan starts swim lessons this week.
everyday for an hour, still going strong with baseball
two nights a week, plus Josh plays one night, raspberry festival
3 on 3 basketball Friday so they have a practice this week and then
we are headed down south Friday night for another softball tournament
down south. A HUGE thanks to my mom who is going to have Jordan
so we can enjoy some couple time kid free!!! It has been a while. I love the
kiddos but having them home everyday all day you need a little break every once
in a while. Michelle comes home next Sunday!
Excited to hear all about her trip and see pictures!

ten on ten | July

ten on ten button

once a month on the tenth
taking a photo every hour for ten consecutive hours. 
Finding much life and beauty 
among the ordinary things of our day!











Thursday is a very low key day for us.
It is nice to have a day to hang out around the house.
Jordan enjoyed watering the lawn, watching the garbage and playing in his baseball game.
Michelle got to babysit her cousins for most of the day, come to Jordan's game with us
and then Josh took her out on a little date before she leaves for a week.
