Lake Chelan With The Boys

 Dad, Levi and I headed over to Eastern Washington early, so we could visit with Pop Pop Sr.

for the night. Levi and I loved having dinner with him, spending the night and just hanging out in his super cozy home.

A Super Fun Overnight With the Bakers!

Our dear friends Justin, Laura, Ruby and Calvin invited us to their cabin in Manchester for the night. Even though we could only go for one night, we had the most magnificent time.

Precious Moments with Messie & PopPop

These pictures were taken at the end of our trip in the NW. They captured precious moments of childhood and bonds the boys formed with each other & Messie & PopPop.

 

 

Gus insisted on sitting with Levi for take off. He didn't move a muscle. I love how safe and loved he feels wrapped in his big brothers arms.

Highlights from July

 Post 4th of July included art camp for Levi, bus rides down to Santa Monica, trips to the water park, and lots of lazy evenings. These pictures capture the boys and their personalities beautifully.

 Gussy loves all food (pizza, sushi, steak...you name it)

 

 You can't take the English out of Levi. Any excuse to wear his scarf!

We have a new neighbor...and we love him! Meet Theo. He moved here for London and is the exact same age as Levi. I went from 3 boys to 4 overnight!

A work trip took me to Chicago for a week and I squeezed in some gorgeous runs!

And a fantastic visit w/ Lin!
