June Bug

Ahhhhh, June! We have caught the June Bug, and here's why...
School is out for the Summer!
 That means it's time to set up the pool (and for the kids to jump in while it's still FRIGID)
 and mostly live in or around the pool for the next 3 months.
 June means visits with great friends (12+ years of friendship with these amazing ladies!)
 and getting the horde of our children together so THEY can become friends, too.
 June means celebrating that I am another year older, wishing I was another year wiser instead of another year grumpier. :)
 June means running around the backyard in the evening and potty training (streaker!).
 June means celebrating Father's Day and spoiling the best Dad I could have ever wished for my kids to have. 
 June means it is warm enough to be outside as a family...for part of the day, before it becomes scorching. 
 This June meant the passing of one of Tyler's dearest friends from Latvia. But this June brought the tender mercy of another friend from Latvia bringing him Honey Cake (HOLY YUM!) just days later. It was a sweet reminder that the Lord knows our pains and sometimes works through others to bring a little peace to our souls. Who knew Honey Cake could be so spiritual? 
This June was almost as perfect as a June could be (other than that 100 degree stretch the last week or so...that, we could have done without!). Yep, we caught the June Bug and the only thing that allowed us to let it go was knowing that JULY was going to be amazing!
