June

June always seems to be such a refreshing month with it bringing the official start to summer. 

The garden is doing really well this summer. The boys love eating the mini tomatoes right off the plant every morning when we water. We have been making so many summery foods with the tomatoes we are getting. Everett has been fascinated by the carrots in the garden. He loves picking them even though it is still a little bit early.

Nana came to visit and it seemed to rain every day she was here but we still had the best time. It is always so fun when family comes.

Everett had two weeks of summer camp and had a really good time. It was the perfect thing for him to get out for a few hours every afternoon. It was great for me to have some nice resting time while Nathan napped every day. This pregnancy has been making me really tired.

With summer time here it means beach days are starting back up. We have missed the beach so much.

I have noticed the fireflies in the backyard this summer a lot more than any other summer. They are so magical to watch in the early evenings.

I hurt my back really bad for a couple days and took some really nice relaxing baths to help soothe it. One night I put a bucket of gardenias from the yard in the tub and it was amazing.

The sunflowers will be blooming any day now which is always my favorite in the summertime.
