Summer in Full Swing

I'm back! For those of you who keep coming back and not finding anything new, I apologize, but we've been having too much fun and not enough time at home to blog. So here we go on another big catch-up blog!

First our visit with "Emmeka," aka Anneke and Emma. My friend Lovin and her two girls came up to Fort Worth to visit us this summer and this year, not only did Em and Anneke have fun, so did Marielle and Juliana! Painting, swimming, baking, playing, running, zoo... it was pretty fun!

It's always a good time for silly faces











Birthdays are always fun, but the Strohmers really do a fantastic job every year with the creativity they put into Max's parties! This year we went to Strohmer Ranch. Complete with horse rides, barn doors, piles of hey, delicious ranch-like snacks, and a piñata! I'm pretty sure Max had a pretty great birthday!


Happy Birthday Max!





Every once in a while my brother Leo races motorcycles in Denton. It's a nice to see him and cheer him on, even for just a short afternoon. That day was particularly hot, and Emma started a fun water fight! It wasn't the best race the team has had, considering the bike broke down a few times, but it sure was fun spending some time with Zio Leo!
