Santa 2013

Sledding and trees

Be still my heart

I love how these two love each other. Of course, there are arguments and frustrations between them. But they are buddies, best friends. I asked Bennett tonight if he had a girlfriend (hoping maybe I could get the scoop on his new group of peers at school), and without any hesitation, and a little annoyance that I even had to ask, he said "Clara". 

Summertime

Traveling, water, boating, camping, popsicles. It's been a great summer so far. 

Ocean Shores

We had the good fortune of being invited along on the Ward's beach vacation (or did we invite ourselves...the details are blurry). There was relaxing, wine drinking, rough housing, kite flying, sand castle building, movie watching, and overall lots of fun had by all. Thanks Karen and Andy - you guys are great friends (as evidenced by Andy cleaning up Clara's car sick incident, among other things)!

Fun run
