This boy.... 

Family.

Family. Honestly and truly the greatest blessing one can have is being with those who they consider family. Last Tuesday the kids (Jane, ally & ben) and I traveled to Farmington to enjoy Lillian Jane's (lillers) birthday party. Jane and ally love their cousins and love swimming so this was a heaven day! I love spending time with Julie so it was a win for me too. Ben LOVES the water, we've just discovered this. The pool party was the third time he'd been in the water and he loves to be dunked under. He is a little too confident in the water for my liking so he has to be watched really close, even with floaties on. We stayed until the pool is getting ready to close, and even then Jim is asking if they could camp outside the pool gates. 

On Thursday Rich took me on a date to dinner and a movie (morty's cafe and Jurassic park) and then we even treated ourselves to some frozen yogurt ( yogurt land). I don't know what it was, but i was really needing a date with Rich, and I got it :) summertime we spend a lot of time in the backyard in the evenings, and don't seem to go out on many "dates." Maybe it was the fact that we're going to have a baby in a little over a month and I know that I won't be getting much alone time with Rich, whatever it was it felt good to go out and be together. I'm a lucky girl to call him mine.
