Jill and Kyle’s Wedding

For my last trip during this pregnancy, we took a train to Kansas City for Jill and Kyle’s wedding.  Unfortunately I didn’t get any photos of Jill and Kyle. But here is one with the beautiful bride and I!

I think he was most excited to see the lion but it was sleeping. Maybe next time.

Summer Fun with the Fulkerson-Smith’s

We miss our old neighbors. It was nice living next door to a great family with a little boy Elijah’s age. So we always look forward to times when the boys can get together to play. The boys had a blast one Saturday in June playing in the pool and eating popsicles.

Elijah adores baby Kennedy. He loves to hold her and kiss her when she comes over.
