DANCE recital!
My buddies in the audience
Two of Kayla's sweet friends (and their mamas) came to watch!
Irish dancing sisters
It's rare to get a picture with my kiddos that isn't a selfie, but with two other mama friends there, I got in a few. Love looking back on these memories together.
Memories to cherish forever!
with her teacher, Miss Jan
That sweet smile
The non-dancing children and I hanging out at the check-in table, helping out
And that sweet smile. :)

We invited our priest over for dinner...and games!
beauty while on a walk
There is beauty all around. You just have to look.
Fun at the lake with neighborhood friends
The For Sale sign fell down. We weren't sad about it. It almost felt like a sign...
Kayla snapped some cool cloud and mountain views
fun cups being used as fun vases
Just have to keep it real. I have been nearly "living" in my car- I'm in it so often and it's a mess. yikes!
My dear college roomie came to visit with her two oldest kiddos!
We got free tacos!
and hung out at the local lake
Chris let me pick up Kayla to bring her along. She and Mari are the same age.
with my beautiful mini me.
Anything with honeydew melon seems like a little God-wink to me.
We tested out different Reese's styles and rated them.
Dear friends gave us money to go out to eat since eating at home all the time with showings happening was a bit of a logistical nightmare at times. We went to Freddy's!
Beautiful sunsets
And beautiful snuggles.
I cannot even come close to explaining just what all these little moments mean to me.
He ALWAYS restores.
"I will not doubt God's promise in unbelief. Rather, I am empowered by faith and give glory to God. I am fully convinced that what you have promised you are also able to do." Romans 4:20
The neighborhood kiddos put on a Cinderella play
And out fav summer pastime- the POOL
Thank you for the bluetooth speaker, Aunt Shannon! What a fun gift. We've been hanging on the driveway, coloring with chalk, reading, and playing bocce ball in the front yard and listening to fun music.
Just some after the pool silliness.
Garage all packed full of stuff so that the inside can be open and lovely for showings
Eucharistic procession that was just beautiful
Another God-wink.
Honeydew fizz stick
Love you sweet girlie
Everyday this scene in my room made me smile and nearly cry. I want to stay in my home, in OUR home, but I don't get a choice. I can't keep it on my own and he gave up fighting for us and is fighting against us, so the home must be sold and all split down the middle. Ugh. The story of Solomon and the two women fighting over the baby in the Old Testament feels a lot more real. I often feel as if my very heart is being ripped in half.
I LOVE these flowers. I'm getting some and planting them in every yard at every house I ever live in.
These are fun too.
Savoring each sunset over our home.
Coloring with sidewalk chalk with friends
Our former neighbors moved to Florida but came back to visit!!
Just a sweet little rubberband shape note
He LOST his FIRST TOOTH!!!
Be still, my heart.
More fun with former neighbor buddies.
It was just SO sweet to get all these girlies together again.
and what joy to see my dear friend again. I miss you, Britt.
selfie memories
Neighborhood BBQ!
God's promises abound.
I love these Colorado summer evening skies especially when they are viewed from this perspective.
beautiful little flowers around our front tree.
And that's a wrap on June 2022
