can't complain....

... that the days go slow! Pretty sure they go by at lightning speed most of the time. We don't do a lot of big trips or vacations but we have sure do have fun! One day we will revolve around a "school year"  I suppose, but for now we just get to enjoy relaxing and spending time with each other. The summer was quite nice weather-wise, and much of it was spent outside.

Lots of time spent with Grandma... at her house, the park, and story times. So great to build a strong relationship with her since we live close!

It's exciting to see Grandpa when he visits every once in a while. The girls love him... lately they pretend to call him on their cell phones every day.

Can't beat a picnic with friends! Sydney is infatuated with Isaac - it's hilarious!

Red cheeks from the hot day, and don't mind the messy house... but darn! Isn't she cute?!

Sydney loves rocking horses. She calls horses  'pity' (?) or something of the sort - a mix of pretty and pony maybe?

Seoul insists that Sydney share everything... so she ends up on the smaller rocking horse many times. Goof!

Cutest girls that LOVE matchy matchy outfits. Oh man, they are getting so big so quick it hurts my heart sometimes!

Our sweet goofy girl.

"Bluebelly" picking as a family. Somehow the girls just ended up laying on the ground waiting for us. They didn't even eat very many! They prefer them frozen for snacks.

Seoul has this horse she named "I Know Who I Am" and lately she wants to take him everywhere she goes. Sometimes I just have to be mean and say no... it's very awkward to carry around.

Our crazy climbing girl - new favorite place is reading books or magazines on the coffee table. If we don't catch her she stands on the table and dances. Hopefully that doesn't turn into a long-term love!

So intently drinking rarely offered chocolate milk in their new summer cups. Both girls have always liked straws in cups better than sippy cups.

Daddy-daughter love. Need I say more?

DQ Dilly Bars... who does love summer treats on those hot days?!

Aunt Kendy moved back to Coos Bay so she and Sherril stopped by for lunch one day on their way out of town. The girls love seeing them!

Still going strong on daddy-daughter days! Seoul really looks forward to one-on-one time with daddy. Don't worry, Sydney has switched off with her once in a while so she gets her own special time also.

Warm summer days definitely call for evening walks. 

This bike rack is a favorite with the girls when we go visit Kelley at work for lunch. It's outside the restaurant Chipotle. We bring our own little cars to play with also.
