I've been a little MIA from the blog since coming home. Everything has been nothing less than crazy. We are enjoying being back home for the summer something bad. I love to watch Brynn with my parents and all our friends. She has really grown quickly this past month and is so much fun. As you know from her 10 month post of walking…. she is into EVERYTHING. She definitely keeps me on my toes.

We went to Florida for 2 weeks 4 days after getting back from Europe. It was such an amazing trip. I hate that we can't be there longer. 

We spent some time in our college town seeing some of our best friends. That too is another place I always hate leaving.(Good thing they are headed here Friday!)

Brad and I are both back into the full swing of work. Brynn is at her first in home daycare and it's amazing. Brad is in his 2nd week of basketball camp that he puts on, loving it as always. 

We head to Iowa for fourth of July to see my dads side of the family and can't wait! They haven't seen Brynn since she was 7 weeks old. 

I have been working long and hard on Brynn's first birthday flamingo-pineapple extravaganza. Along with custom invites and pineapple flower arrangements. Let's be real, her birthday party is really actually for me. She won't remember a thing, but she will be lookin' super cute and eat lots of cake!

Lots of sunshine and pool days. 

Playing outside is our new favorite…..and eating rocks.

I feel like every summer we make all these plans. Some are getting left behind this time. We are really trying to focus on spending lots if quality time with our family and friends. The summers fly by entirely too fast. I don't want to miss a thing.

How is my sweet little baby 2 months shy of 1?! I feel like we were in the hospital just yesterday. This month I have really noticed her personality beaming. It is so big just like her beautiful smile. Joy was prophesied over her when she was still in my tummy and her life has definitely brought that to us and so many others. Days can get rough, but there is nothing else I rather be doing with my time then raising my sweet girl up. We love you more and more sweet baby!
