Eric made an Abbey-and-Andi burrito.
Hangin' at Cherry Hill
Grandma Luke came with us to Cherry Hill one summer day.
She watched Bowen for Les and she brought treat for the kids.
Love this little man! My nephew Bo.
Us girls on our way up to Bear Lake, takin' a pit stop at the Aggie ice cream shop.
Enjoyin' some sun at Bear Lake West pool house.
The view from the pool. Stunning!
The next day we found out that the lake water is indeed stunning...more like stunningly cold!
Doin' some jigs in the hot tub
These two come up with their own perfect poses.
Ava joinin' in on the sister fun.
The cousins hangin' out at the Luke cabin, playin' a little Minecraft. Abbey was in heaven being able to play with the boys.
On the day of our proclaimed beach day, we pulled up and found a very empty beach.
We knew why....The water's usually pretty freezing until the end of June and this was the beginning of June. But, we stuck it out and ended up having a great day...

The big day: June 14, 2014
We worked hard to prepare for this day and Abbey seemed more than ready.
She was happy, sweet, and cordial to all the many supportive and kind family members who came to celebrate the day with her.

Father's Day #3 as the united Klein-Allen Clan
The girls took tennis for two weeks this month.
They did such a good job and I loved watching them learn this new sport.
Aren't they cute?!
My sister Lori went to girls camp one week, and I got to watch her boys for a day.
It was a rainy day so I took the kids to the trampoline park.
They had a blast. :)

A picture that perhaps only I can appreciate.
It makes my heart happy.
Eric pulled a trick on Andi and decorated her room with her undies.
It got a few laughs, as you can imagine.
Bedtime routines.
