Sweet Surprise

My cousin Daniel and his wife live in New York and were out here last weekend for a friends wedding, so we got to spend the day with them before they headed back home. It was so great to see him and Amanda. We had a great time catching up with them and letting them get to know our kids. It was a very sweet surprise. Here are some pictures of our time together. Love you Daniel & Amanda!

Amanda, Stephen & Daniel

Amelia loved playing with all of Amanda's jewelry

Ava was so sweet with Daniel

Amelia, on the other hand, had a hard time warming up to him..sorry D!

The whole gang together...so wonderful!

Jacob Turns 14!

Jason and I can hardly believe we have a 14 year old! It seems like just yesterday he was in elementary school, and this August he begins High School. It just goes so fast! This year we celebrated his birthday with a pool party. It ended up being a great day to be at the pool. It started off cool, but that just meant we had the pool and gazebo all to ourselves. Jake is a great kid and we feel very blessed to have him in our family. Enjoy the pics!
