So Hot!

We have been doing a lot of indoor activities lately due to the super-hot weather here in Texas. One of Joel's favorites is playing with his train set. He likes watching it from various angles...

When we can get outside, it's usually in the early morning or late afternoon. Joel loves getting all wet while playing with his water table.

So In Love

It's ridiculous how cute this kid is.

Indiana Trip

We recently returned to Texas after a month-long trip to Indiana. It was so great spending time with family and friends. Here are a few snapshots from our visit:
