Our June in Pictures

I have been a little behind on my blogging lately, so I am just doing some snippets of what we have been up to in June. The month started out with my hubby having knee surgery. We have enjoyed having him home, but have been sticking close by until he can get out and do more.

We worked on an old lady's yard because her view was covered by brush and trees. She lives across the street. Here is the BEFORE.



Here it is AFTER! This is after many hours of work and sweat thanks to a big group of guys at our church. She is so happy with the result and her new view!





Hubby celebrated his birthday and the kids helped me make him a cake.




We brought him his meal and his cake to him on the couch. Happy Birthday Honey!




Makenna and her cousins sold some lemonade on a few hot days!






I had a birthday and turned 35. We celebrated at my mom's house and I chose Key Lime Pie...my favorite!Me and my favorite hubby :) This was his first time out since his surgery.




Got to celebrate again with my sister and my mom at my favorite mexican restaurant. It is a new one close to our house and it has outside seating, another favorite of mine! I only sit out there when hubs is not with me. He doesn't do "hot" while he eats.





Got to celebrate again with my friends, Amy and Amber, at a yummy bistro and got to eat outside again. I have great friends! I don't usually have this many birthday celebrations, but I loved it!





We had a few summer storms which prompted Makenna to move to Bryce's bed one night. I had to get a picture when I saw this. She usually comes to get in our bed. The picture looks like it is daylight, but it's really dark. They do love each other even though it doesn't seem like it some days!






Grandma Patty came to visit from New York. Bryce talked her into buying him the biggest nerf water gun ever.


The kids loved having her here!





Had a girly slumber party with cousins complete with "Shirley Temples" (Sprite, grenadine, and cherries). I loved that fancy drink as a kid!



Bryce went to a basketball camp and worked on his "skills". He is really improving!





We had lots of lazy days at the pool...





Silly boys sporting their highwater shorts!



Lots of pretend food was prepared for us.



Oh, and I finally found a living room rug at Home Goods on Clearance. I love it!




My first choice was a sisal/sea grass rug but this one is softer and more family friendly so I went with this one after taking a family vote. I am so enjoying these schedule free summer days. Can't wait to see what July has in store! Happy Summer!
