Summer Happenings

This is going to be a combo post, kind of a recap of multiple summer days, all rolled in together! Here we go! :)

We went to Lake Hartwell to visit some of DJ's friends. DJ, Brandon, and Ashley all went to college together, and they have a sweet little girl now, so we spent the day with them on the lake. Grace enjoyed her first time on a boat, and DJ even took her out on the innertube. She had a great time, and loved when the boat went really fast!





















Here are some pictures from a doll birthday party that Tiffany hosted for Abby's favorite baby doll, Kayla. Grace and her two closest friends, Taylor and Abby, all enjoyed fruit, yogurt, and birthday cupcakes, as well as fairy princess crafts and stories. It was a sweet afternoon!












We had a bit of a yellow jacket problem in our backyard, and DJ got stung by one at the beginning of July. He had a bad reaction, and had a lot of pain and swelling, plus extreme tiredness and dizziness after getting stung. He and my dad decided to kill the yellow jackets by pouring gasoline down their hole, but DJ was taking NO chances in getting stung again, so he prepared himself with this outfit:

No stings! :)

Grace has enjoyed helping DJ and I take care of Daniel, my best friend's new baby. He was born at the end of April, and we have babysit him a few times this summer to help her out. Grace likes to help me feed him and put his pacifier in his mouth. Such a helper!



Finally, here we are at the end of summer, and I can't believe how quickly it has gone by. Grace is looking so grown up these days, and she brings such happiness to our lives.
