Summer

My Jacob loves to be outside. He could spend hours out there doing black flips down his slide into the pool, creating a HUGE mess in his sand table, flying kites, cashing butterflies. You name it. He's in. 

(Love our huge backyard, by the way)


Water Table. Such a Big Mess but totally work the hours and hours that he spends out there

This year we grew herbs (Basil, Parsley, Cilantro, and Spinach) and tomato plants. I had awesome salsa, pesto and marinara sauce from scratch. So easy and ... delish.

Our baby basically slept the summer away. Okay by me!
He also started smiling :)


We also drove to North Carolina to the Gillespie Family Beach Reunion. 
We stayed in two huge beach houses right on the beach. 15 Adults and 22 kids. Oh my.
It was so much fun! Kind of crazy with an 8 week old but fun. This Florida girl missed the ocean so much! Thanks to everyone who held my baby so I could splash around in the waves like a crazy person.


The whole family
