Our Summer Album… so far

The sun is shining, I feel the warmth of it on my face, tanning my much needed white skin. The breeze is blowing, water and pools flowing, and bare feet abound. Finally, summer had arrived and our long winter was over. We were ready for that change! Summer means bon fires, going to the lake, fair days and nights, toes on the dashboard, country music blaring. Thank you Jesus for summer time!

My husband has a busy travel schedule for work, but thankfully it's also allowed us to travel with him as a family. At the end of May, Eric and I took a much needed vacation to San Juan, Puerto Rico where we stayed at the Caribe Hilton. It was an amazing place, beautiful weather, and lots of things to do. I was personally thankful that the people there also spoke English… cause let's face it, I dropped Spanish is college. We did everything from paddle boarding, snorkeling and kayaking at the 3rd most beautiful beach in the world, explored downtown San Juan, ate amazing food, and soaked in the hot Caribbean sun!








In June, Eric took Miles and I with him to Gatlinburg, TN. He worked, we played. Kind of. It was my first time there, and it was gorgeous. There are tons of things to do in Gatlinburg and surrounding towns. Great family trip! And I'm pretty sure I was born with the southern hospitality, if only I had been born with the southern accent. It's my favorite.











Summer has been exciting so far and there is so much more to come! Thank you Jesus for miracles, sunshine, and the opportunity to experience the joys of summer.
