Summer Days

Our summer life has been about...



Walks to Starbucks



Trying new things



Catching some rays at the beach






Yard improvements









Celebrating Auntie Sue's bday






Feeding goats



Splish splashin'



Neighborhood strolls



Cold treats



And best of all, lots of time with Daddy!

Wedding Pics

This last weekend I went to visit my family and attend a friend's wedding. And I went solo! First trip away from Westly. I came back refreshed.
Here are some pics from the wedding.


Me and Mom



Noelle rocked it as a bridesmaid

The happy couple Kim and Lenny!






Great times!

June's Craft Priject

My dear friend Erin has been newly diagnosed with breast cancer. This has rocked everyone's world. I've been praying God would inspire me with ways to be a good friend to her during this new chapter of her life. I got the idea to give her a journal for her to record thoughts, prayers, ideas etc during her journey. I went through and filled it with inspirational quotes, prompts, and sketches. I pray it blesses her.

Jaunt in Carmel

We kicked off summer vacation with a little get away to Carmel (next to Monterey Bay). Here are some highlights:



We left early Monday morning.



In Carmel we had a picnic lunch at the park.



West was very protective of his mini Oreos.



We were sure to pop in at the Pine Inn, our honeymoon spot 6 years ago.






We had lunch at our all-time favorite spot Anton & Michel's.









We trekked down to the beach to enjoy a little sunshine.









We cuddled in our hotel room.



Nana and Papa (my fab in-laws) joined us for some company and baby sitting services! Thank you!



On our way home we stopped at the Monterey Bay aquarium.












Summer is officially here for the Shaws!

Westly scaled the changer to get a paci for himself. Shocked Mama!
