A different kind of summer



My favorite month of the year is here! I tell Aaron that all the time. July just makes me happy.


No sports on TV.

Hot weather and warm nights.

Snow cones and ice cream on repeat.

The 4th of July and 24th of July holidays.

Birthdays.


We've been taking what we can in stride with Covid restrictions still in place.


Wearing masks everywhere in public.

Getting takeout.

Going on lots of walks and playing in the yard.


This summer is a lot different than I was hoping. Last year I dreamed of splash pads and pools. Friend get togethers and BIG birthday parties. Parades and events and more.

... But we are still alive, happy, healthy and safe, which is all we could ask for.

So for now we'll continue with our walks, small get togethers, Facetime calls and ice cream runs. Because lets be real, getting a toddler out and about it more work than you think!

Also in the past few months, we've had a socially distant baby shower for Lexi, went to the zoo a few times, cousin Cal was born, family came into town for the 4th and we've been on a few hikes. Photo dump below.
