A PERFECT SUMMER MOMENT





Dear Brooklyn,

I woke up early this morning and the house was already at 74 degrees.

Usually I would shout for joy because I'm a 100 degree weather type of girl, but I was worried that you would over heat while running around outside again, so we made our way up the street to Walgreens and bought ourselves a little 16 dollar pool.

Combine that with some freezing hose water and bring on the heat!


So there we sat, you with your chair in the middle of the pool and me lounging in my chair to the side, splashing each other and squealing with delight.

Once our toes turned to raisens, we gathered our stuff, sat on the swing, and fought over towels.


While I fed us yogurt covered pretzels I explained to you that the moon was not an airplane, and then I tried to figure out why the moon was out in the middle of the day... I still don't know.

While we sat there and told each other "this is fun" about 50 times, I thought about how content I was in that perfect moment with you.


I can't wait to do this every day all summer long.

I love you.

Sincerely, Lori

ANOTHER DAY ON THE LAKE




KURT JUMPING THE WAKE.

Dear Kurt,

Even though Brooklyn and I are coming down with colds, we spent a day on the lake.

KACEY JUMPING THE WAVES FROM ANOTHER BOAT

It was fabulous as always.

BRITTANNY GETTING ACROSS AFTER A JUMP.

And I am getting a ton better at wake boarding. I am not too proud to admit that I have been scared of wake boarding for a while. I am scared to crash hard and I can never seem to control the board like everyone else can. Today I overcame those fears and did awesome.

I EVEN GOT A LITTLE AIR ON MY JUMPS

And you, my friend, are also doing amazing! You attempted a back flip at least 5 times. I know "attempted" sounds lame but hey, it's a back flip!!! A person will either land it or they will crash hard, so you definitely get kudos for attempting! And I honestly think that you will get it one of these days.

ONE OF YOUR ATTEMPTED BACK FLIPS

Oh, and I can't forget about our adorable little baby. She did great on the boat, like always. She loves the loud music and danced almost the entire time. Except when she fell asleep on my chest for half an hour. So cute, she is.

BROOKLYN EXPLORING AND DANCING

Good times.

Sincerely, Lori

FLOPPY HAT




Dear Brooklyn,

I love hangin' out in the sun, so in order to spare your beautiful, fair skin I have busted out your floppy hats.


I must say they are adorable.
