More June Fun!

Aidan has a summer internship with Alvarez and Marcel (where Uncle Cody works!) for his supply chain management major! He even went on a big boy trip to Chicago for orientation.

With her CVA certification, Avery was able to get a job at the vet clinic she'd been volunteering at through school! She took a break last week go to to her last ever youth camp!

We did a fun night of music bingo with our friends!

I had dinner with my big sis Leigh Ann. I hadn't seen her in years so it was really good to catch up!

Lunch with my cousin Meredith and baby Cora!!

Twinning with Hollie!

I Heart New York!

I was dying to see Maya Rudolph in the play Oh, Mary so I begged Daniel to plan a work trip to New York so I could tag along! Our seats were great, and the show was hilarious (especially Maya!). After the show we had drinks at the bar and cheered on the Knicks with the rest of the New York crowd as they won Game 3 of the Championship against the Spurs! I also went to the Broadway Museum while Daniel went to work the next morning and it was so much fun. Our return flight got delayed and diverted so we got home almost 24 hours after we originally planned, but I was just thankful that happened on the way home and not the way there! 

Summer Said Yes!!

Just a few days after we got back from Europe, in beautiful Turner Falls, OK at a spot that is special to them both, Aidan asked his high school sweetheart Summer to marry him and she said YES!!

Aidan pulled off the perfect proposal by working with Summer’s family to get her there under a “let’s take family pictures” ruse. Daniel and Avery and I drove up to be part of the big moment, and I managed to get our very favorite photographer Carol to drive two hours to capture these stunning pictures that we will treasure forever!

We ADORE Summer and her wonderful family and couldn’t be more thrilled to gain such an amazing daughter/sister-in-law! Our house just lights up whenever she walks through the door, and more importantly Aidan lights up too! There’s nothing like seeing your child so happy, and watching God work in their relationship over the past few years has been such a joy as a parent. We are over the moon and SO thankful and excited! And to top it off, with what could only be a thumbs-up from God, Aidan proposed on what would have been Uncle Reggie’s 74th birthday.

It was the most special day and we are so excited for next year!
