I has been sooooo long since I have posted! Here is a glimpse of what we have been up to the past few months (starting with June!)...
Whit, Dad, Grady, and Meg at Huntington Beach
My cousin Neil graduated with his PhD from UCLA in June--quite an honor! So Grady and I went down to LA to celebrate with the family. And what is LA without the beach?!?! Grady so far loves the ocean. There's something about the sound of the water and smell of the air that just makes him totally relaxed. I must say it does the same for me too! Thanks Dad and Allis for such a fun weekend!
Grady got to meet my Grandma and Grandpa for the first time while we were in LA. I love this photo!
Off for a walk!
Jake, Garrett, Denise, Grady, John, and Amanda
The park right behind our house hosts a Wine and Art festival each year. While we were there first it came out that Jake used to make funnel cakes at Schlitterbaun in New Braunfels, TX and then it came out that Denise and Garrett had never had one! Of course we had to get one to share! BTW, this is about a week before Baby Malin was born!
Father's Day
Papa with Grady and Beatrice on Father's Day.
Another photo capturing Grady's love for the water! "Jumping" in to Daddy!
