summer

While it has been an incredibly fun, full and efficacious summer, as a family we've slowed life down as much as possible.  We have owned our weekends together, spending our days walking beaches, cooking good food, reading books, having meaningful conversations with each other and the boys, and more often then not doing very little...days when the boys never got out of their swimsuits or better yet pajamas.  It has been therapeutic.  
In addition we traveled- a two week road trip to Bend, a week in Bellingham, Cory a month at Stanford. We grew- Ben turned five, Isak lost his first several baby teeth, Levi has had an explosion in his vocabulary, Sean is eating solids and nearly crawling. And a bundle of pictures to document our days....
