 Fun at the beach and playing games!  Maddie made a good friend, Hailey.

 The kids in front of our camper for the week.  It was pretty nice, but some little furry friends thought so too!


 Bagels with the cousins!
 Maddie and I went to Six Flags together this year.  Maddie loves to spin and go fast.  She did every roller coaster she was tall enough to do.  Going upside down over and over is her idea of fun!


 We made a trip to see our cousins in Kentucky in late July.  It was so great being together - we had such a great time!

Emmie wakes up early, so her owl turns green at 7:00am in hopes she stays in bed.  She gets excited when it says this...
Emmie is my dancing girl.  :)
Dane got an award at basketball camp!

June

Maddie's last day of 1st grade!  She had an awesome year.  Her strongest subject was reading and she loved music and art.  She made some good friends this year, especially Arianna, Natalie and Charlotte. She loved her teacher and was sad to say goodbye to 1st grade.




 St. Joes Fun


 These 2 silly girls.... Dane didn't think it was too funny though...

 Maddie had her last soccer game with her Panthers teammates.  Maddie loved practice and just thought the games we alright.  She loved the social aspect of it.
