Summer Family Fun

Garage sale, beach days, Fathers day pool party, and a not so fun visit to get Sydney's ears pierced have made up the last few weeks for us. Among other random incidents, illnesses and events. All in all, we are good, thankful and enjoying our summer days...

Sydney was warned but highly underestimated the way ear piercing would feel and was quite shocked after the first one was done. I on the other hand was quite stupid not to insist they do both ears at the same time! Oh well another lesson learned. She was very happy with the results and enjoyed her sucker enough to forget the trauma just minutes before. Poor first borns, they have to endure so much more than the others! Now I know how to go about getting this done correctly the next time around!



This Dog, Charlie or should I say cousin Charlie, is Sydney's absolute best friend! She is an animal lover. I can't work up the courage to get an animal of our own yet though!


Check out the red heads!
