Summertime Fun!!

Summer... I absolutely love it!! No, I'm not a teacher so I don't get 3 months off, but I do love the laid back, relaxing, more carefree vibe that is in the air when school lets out and kids can run wild.  We're loving this season in our life, with a 2 year old and a one year old. Yes, it's challenging, but we try to soak up every little stage because we know these nuggets grow way too fast. I've captured lots of pictures of our summer and I cannot believe that it's coming to an end.  Next week we'll get back into a routine and our sweet kiddos will be back in MDO 3 days a week.  So thankful for all the time we spent together and all the fun memories of Summer 2015!!

The Amazeum

This week I took off a random Thursday and decided I was spending it with my sweet babies before school starts back in full swing.  We didn't have too much planned, but we started our day with donuts at Krispy Kreme and then went to the new Amazeum in Bentonville. 
 
I've said it before, but Matt and I feel so blessed to be in NWA where there are so many great things to offer our kiddos.  This place was fabulous and I know Reese thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.  Brooks is still a little young, but there were definitely designated areas where he could play.
(It was so great, that I think I know a soon to be 3 year old that is going to have a birthday party there ;)) Thankful for lots of fun memories!
