Sweet Summertime!

We are having so much fun enjoying summer!

Before our Gatlingburg trip, we met up with Soley and her siblings at Noah's Ark at her church.

Friends!

Kyle and Danielle were having a staycation this week so we went over and visited their pool with them!

They have a regular size pool and then a baby pool that's about 8 inches and perfect for our little kiddos!

Maddie was the only one in her dance class and loved her private lesson with Ms. Audra!

Then, it was back up to AAK for swim lessons. My little sidekick loves having a snack while watching her big sis swim.

Goodness, she's a sweet girl.

On Friday, we were back to All About Kids (see a trend here? They may need to give me a bed this summer) for a play date with Kaylen and Avery. Kathryn was in town for Carla's wedding (post to come) and we love getting the girls together.

Maddie and Kaylen in line for the rope swing.

This picture cracks me up. Sydney didn't even know what she was in line for, but she just got right in. 

Taking a break to catch up with Avery.

Of course she loves the balance beam. She's actually quite good at it. 

This weekend we celebrated Soley and Mya's birthdays!

Getting her balloons for the water balloon fight.

How cute is this?

I also got to have brunch with some of my grad school class mates. Because my Master's is in international commerce and diplomacy, I don't get the opportunity to see my buds much. Joel just finished a job at the White House, Kim and Josh are in El Salvador and Sean is in Australia. They are everywhere! 

Finally, Maddie got her fancy clothes on and headed to our church for the Father Daughter Tea. She is soooo excited. She asked Chris if he would wear his "wedding clothes." Haha.

She was cheesing so hard!

All set to go!
