Summer - Top 10 Pics

In chronological order :)
1) 
Great friends from Eagle County.  We all moved to the valley at the same time.  Being that none of us had any family nearby, we became each other's families.  Not just these guys, but so many other friends in Eagle County - we couldn't have asked for better friends!

2) 
I love this picture of Lindy.  I had no idea I'd so badly needed a little girl in my life :)  She never stops moving, never stops making me laugh.   
3) 
On the ferry in Alabama celebrating our 5-year anniversary.  So thankful for someone I can say is truly an excellent husband and an even better dad to our kids. 
4)
We were so excited to have mom, dad, Robbie, and Rhonda out to visit before we moved.  They were troopers with regard to no air conditioning and steep/skinny mountain roads. 
  5)
Fourth of July Bike Parade in Eagle.  So thankful for the many small-town memories from our time in Colorado.  Love that these two kids love to ride their bikes.
6) 
This photo represents a few things to me...1) We really enjoyed having Ronnie, Michelle, Ethan, Lexi, and Bailey living so close to us in CO.  2) Love the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo and all of its hands-on activities for the kids.  3)  So fun to take grandma Hammers to the zoo with the CO grandkids!
7) 
It's difficult to select one photo to recap our last CO camping trip.  The views were amazing.  The company was spectacular. 
8) 
This pic summarizes Lindy well.  She was originally in the raft with myself, Mark, and Cayle, but she decided she wanted to be more adventurous and ride with daddy in the tube.  She loves life to the nth degree :)
9)
Loved the Eagle Town Concert Series.  A great place to hang out with friends and listen to some music.  This pic was at our last concert and Cayle had been surprised by Carter being there.  The kids had a great time dancing/running around chasing each other. 
10)
Our new house.  Finding it wasn't the easiest, arranging everything leading up to the move and selling our house wasn't the easiest.  But it's truly great here.  A different kind of great than being in the mountains, but still great.  Cayle and Lindy are loving the daily attention from their grandma and grandpa, aunts and uncles, and extended local family.  We have plans to see my family next weekend for one of Nick's races, and many more events planned for after that.  We are truly enjoying having family so close.  This house is a great fit for us - bigger than our Gypsum house and a huge yard.  We are getting settled with everything, and I start my new job tomorrow.  We have been blessed :)
