Just a Few Reasons We Love Summer:

1. We get to see family a little more frequently:

Aunt Ally bravely letting Faith paint her fingernails (or fingers to be more specific :) )

Aunt Kiki stopped by on her way home from the Ozarks!2. We get to see family AND go to the zoo!!! The Henry Doorley Zoo that is....not just your average run of the mill zoo...it's amazing! Faith loved it.
Daddy and Uncle Bubba keeping a close eye on Faith through the "tunnels"

The zoo would not have been nearly as fun without Aunt DD! She was able to help Mommy keep a close eye on Faithers.3. We get to see friends new and old :) The newest of which is baby Whigham set to arrive right around the time Lainie does. Faith thought Bunny needed to give him a kiss too.

Danielle and Ehren stopped by Der and Dan's when we were visiting...Faith enjoyed the extra attention :)

Hamilton is a good friend of Faith's. We will also be watching him starting in October while his Mommy and Daddy work. He's such a sweetie...and cute too!
Faith's friend Kendra got to hang out with us for a few days before she went to visit her dad for the summer. Faith loved having a play mate, and Kendra is a very patient 9 yr. old.

4. We get to lots of fun things with Daddy...like swimming at the lake...

...and learning how to fish. He's pretty much the coolest dad ever.

In other words, we are loving summer around here. Soaking it in while we can!
