Here's a video of our day at the beach. Jack has gotten pretty good at boogie boarding while Luke has decided to save every sea creature that washes up onto shore. Today, he was throwing jellyfish that did not sting back into the ocean.

Big Fish Trip with Daddy
Jack and his dad left this morning for a big fishing trip, and boy did they have a big time. John told me they caught 15-20 fish, and Jack told me they caught so many fish and traded bobbers with another family. Big fun.

4th of July Neighborhood Bike Parade
We decorated our bikes and participated in the neighborhood bike parade this morning. Around thirty kids participated in the parade along with a dozen or so parents. It was a lot of fun. It's been fun getting to know families in this neighborhood. Many of the mothers plan fun activities for the children. Once again we feel so fortunate to have landed where we live.

Help Me Get in Aunt Kathy's Pocket!
We had an amazing time with Aunt Kathy and Uncle Kevin, time that lifted spirits and prepared us for difficult days ahead. Time where love surrounded all of us. I cried as I watched the Versa (Meggie's new car!) leave our driveway this morning. Knowing that in a few short weeks I get to see four of my favorite people was the only thought that stopped the tears.
All week long, Kathy told Luke that she needed to put him in her pocket and pull out his sweetness whenever she needed comfort. Luke understood this on a very literal level. As Kathy and Kevin prepared to leave this morning, he was certain he was traveling with them. He actually tried to crawl in Aunt Kathy's pocket. I took this sweet but blurry video of him asking me to help him get in her pocket.
Aunt Kathy told Luke he was going to ride to Minnesota with me instead of them. As soon as we came into the house, Luke was gone. When I went in search for him, I found him sitting in the van in the garage. Sweet child. He loves his aunt and uncle. We all do.
