This little beauty was part of a bevy of gorgeous flower girls at our cousin’s mountain wedding last weekend.

Photos from home 

From New York, I asked Bryan (who was in Chicago until the day before yesterday), to send me a photo from home. Now I’m sharing it with you, wherever you may be (if you’re reading this, you’re likely in Nebraska). Hope we are all together again soon!

 

Snuggle up

Our new king-sized bed is very popular among the littles…

  

(Also, note Sleeping Bunny has been returned to her rightful owner, thankfully!)

And summer starts

The girls wrapped up a great school year today. First and fourth grades are in the books!

Summer camps – gymnastics, art, STEM/science, and music – begin next week. Piano and gymnastics classes continue, but it should be a relatively low key season (for those not yet old enough to drive…).
