Catching up

The trip started with bacon eating on the floor of the airport.
No joke.

Fully plugged in, but these girls rocked it. 

Considering they spend their days in a town where we know nearly everyone. Every. One.
The whole travel thing was huge.
Time change, long day of travel.
But Uncle Tim and Uncle Matt at their local park less than a block away? Ya- awesome.
People watching 
Cousin kissing
Flower smelling. Ya. It was rad
Far too much to even put in words.
Except to say don't be fooled. This is the face of a child in the midst of a complete meltdown.
But after an absolutely beautiful wedding, the girls were ready for some lake time.
And I needed to get my hands on Baby John without Moxie loosing her mind. Sharing her Grandparents set her off into a stunning show of typical two-year old behavior. Wow.

But some hikes helped

As did the very first beach trip
Cold weather - pa-sha! Nothing is stopping this girl from her beach day

And we even got some lake time in with cousin Amy
More Cousins!!!
Moxie had her warming moments provided Uncle Charlie was holding John
Piper was beside herself.
Cousin Aowyn says, "I'm a tiger"
"Really, because I'm a leopard"
Soul sisters 
 
Josh even rented a boat for a morning.
Fun!

And even more cousins!
Moxie took a liking to Uncle Al. Who can blame her

Frog house? Aunt Val you are too much!
And even managed to not distroy the Uncles' flat before heading out of town.
Freew! We made it back in town in time to enjoy the weather before the bugs came in.
Sand Dunes with good friends
Don't be fooled. This girl loves the idea of the potty. But not there yet.
That would be a sprinkler under that tramp. Good thing too, because we are now in full bug swing and can barely make it to the car from the house without loosing our minds.
Papa's birthday!
Check out the floaties at the table
Mox always looking for the soft cuddly place to snuggle in
Operation less work, more fun took us camping with good friends for Father's Day 
Stunning local
Piper made this for Kosh for Father's Day
And if wearing a big suit means she can go outside- than heck ya!
