We Love Summer!


Attention ladies and gentlemen:  In the picture above, we have Eden's VERY FIRST PIGTAILS!  And I'm obsessed.  With her, with pigtails, with this picture.  HOW CUTE IS SHE?!?!  I mean, REALLY!

We are so enjoying our summer!  I'm a little freaked that tomorrow is already July.  SLOW DOWN, SUMMER!

Eden and I made Dustin a lopsided cake for Father's Day.

We love summer because of strawberries fresh from Eden's little garden.  There are new ones every morning, and every morning Eden goes and picks and eats them.


We love summer because we can be outside alllll the time.



Eden is getting the hang of riding her tricycle all by herself!  Anytime she does something all by herself, she motions to herself and says, "Eden did."  Which is what she's doing in the second tricycle picture.




We love summer because of doodle bugs.


Eden loves to look for doodle bugs.  Here she stopped her tricycle to put one in her tricycle's handy dandy doodle bug holder.

We love summer because HEB makes fresh squeezed watermelon juice that I turn into popsicles.  Yummy.


We love summer because we make homemade ice-cream.


And SOMEBODY can't wait until I turn off the ice cream maker before sticking her finger in to get a taste.

And THEN, somebody noticed that I was taking pictures and decided that she needed to take pictures of the ice cream too.


Like mother like daughter.  Observe...



We love summer because SWIMMING.  Duh.




Last weekend, a friend and I took our girls rollerskating for the first time.



It was pretty dang adorable.

So, Eden has two cows.  Every year Dustin's dad picks the best calf born to his herd and gives it to Eden.  He physically keeps it and takes care of it, but it's technically Eden's.  He's starting a little herd for her.  Yesterday we took Eden to see her two cows.  (Heifers actually, but we haven't taught her that yet.)  She was so dang proud.  She knows SHE has two cows, and after we had been out there a while, she was able to point to which ones were HERS.

Here's Eden standing in front of the one from last year.


And here's her calf from this year:


Here she is pointing to HERS:


So yeah...

WE LOVE SUMMER!
