We spent one day of playing with cousins after Enoch's adoption. The weather was fine, so we headed to water! We loved paddle boarding and playing in Fish Lake. Conor left early with the babies so they could nap and so he could continue smoking brisket. We had so much fun with our cousins and are so grateful for a day of play!

Okay, this guy melts me every dang day!

Ira's hair is getting really long and I know that maybe it's getting a bit rowdy, but... I just can't cut it. I'm not sure I'll ever be able to cut it. I love his curls so much.

Father's Day was celebrated a week late because I became tummy sick and then Conor got sick. Phew! It was rough. But not to worry, celebrating a week late is no biggie.

Conor is a wonderful father. He's truly dedicated to our family and he means so much to me. He's almost everyone's favorite :)
