Taste of Summer

We've been having SO much fun this summer!  Here are a few things we've been up to. 

Some of my favorite people got together to celebrate Amanda's 40th Birthday!!  We were at the beach on her actual birthday, so we celebrated a few days before. It was such a fun night!!








We took the kids to see Toy Story 4 and it was a great night.  Even though I'm a little sad about how it ended. :(









We got tickets to NWA Bite with the Wares.  It was a fun night with great friends eating yummy food!  We met the Carlson's, Harrimans, and some others there too. 










A little Sunday Best













Saturday, June 29, we went to the LPGA out at Pinnacle and watched some golf.  I'll be honest, we were hoping to stay a little longer, but it was really HOT.  (See the last picture of Brooks.)



















Everybody loves an afternoon at the POOL!







While the kids were at Cousin Camp, Matt and I made the most of acting like we were young and free ;). We met the Bradley's at Dave and Buster's on Sunday night and ate dinner and had the best time playing all sorts of games.  
















Beth Rainbolt also came in town for a few days (a good friend from college) and stayed with Amanda.  I was so happy to get to spend some time with her.  We took her to Preacher's Son for dinner and then we all went back to Amanda and Chad's house. It was a super fun night!













Sunday Best before the 4th of July with sweet church friends.



















The kids had a great week at VBS at our church.  It was all about God's Amazing Wonders. We had to miss one night because Reese got the stomach bug, but still enjoyed every minute we were there.  Our "snack pack" was successful again this year in making snacks for 250 kids every night.  Love these ladies! 













GNO with Cortney and Amanda at Oven and Tap:)




Always having fun with neighbors!!





The 3 Amigos :)




It's been a great start to July!  I can't believe that school starts back a month from today!  We will be working overtime to soak up the most fun we can.







A Firecrackin’ Fourth🇺🇸

This year we spent the 4th of July in Monroe.  We drove to LR Wednesday night and drove on to LA Thursday morning.  We enjoyed the afternoon at the Creel’s house visiting with friends and taking boat rides.  Friday, Larry cooked ribs and we had a fun family day outside on the bayou.  It was so great to see Emily, Jack, and the kids and to spend time with everybody.  We drove all the way home Saturday afternoon so that we could have Sunday to recuperate and get things ready for the week.  
Thankful for all the fun memories these cousins made!




















 









































HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!!
