Spring smiles

I am such a sucker for sibling pictures. I don't think there is a single one I don't fall in love with (even if they are making faces at each other in some instances), but I think it is the coolest thing when the school does it for you! I LOVE that I am NOT the one there, forcing them to smile a certain way or impress upon them how important it is to make it turn out just right. They relax and do it on their own - teaching me that I should trust that they CAN handle it on their own!

These kids are getting too big, too fast.
Yes, family members...I will be bringing these precious, smiley snaps to the reunion this weekend. Your's is in my pocket. Just a little more than 24 hours to go and we will be headed south for the weekend; the kids have been counting down to their favorite place to play with lots of extended cousins.
A side note: Our basement flooring is complete minus the crown molding. The dust has been cleaned up and the paint is next in line. Hopefully, the countertops will be ordered and installed soon, as well. The boxes on top of boxes will be once again lowered from the family room back to the basement. Then -- the family room will meet the task of being boxed up and stored for a fresh coat of color, too. Our goal is to have all important pieces completed by mid July.
Ahh...July.

Cute Cute Cute! B has really filled out. His face isn't as thin as it used to be! He certainly is growing up fast! And A is as pretty as can be and looking so mature with those glasses!
