Where do I begin?

Even though it has only been about 3 weeks since I posted last, it seems like a lot has happened... so where do I begin?

I guess I will start with July 4th. We had a great weekend at Lake Lure with Shay's family. Nothing too eventful happened which is exactly how I wanted it... relaxing! Here are a few shots.

I don't know how we went through the whole weekend without getting one picture of all three cousins together, but here is my sweet nephew Palmer.

The girls in their matching 4th of July outfits. Miriam is too engrossed in her Elmo DVD to look at the camera.

Essie's 2nd boat trip... we forgot the camera the day before which was her 1st ride.

Miriam ate her weight in watermelon and then peed like a camel an hour later :)

Too young for beer, Miriam!
