Summer, thus far

We have been very busy here at the Neal household. I haven't made any time for blogging, so here are some photos from a few trips we've taken.


At the beginning of June we took a trip to Spokane, Wa.

Evleyn's first ride at an amusement park. She loved the airplanes.

After a week visiting friends in Wa, we headed down to Oregon and spent a few days with friends there. One day we took a trip out to the beach. The water was very cold and the kids got very sandy. They loved it.



Maeve discovering sand, which we later caught her putting fistfuls of it into her mouth.



At the beginning of July we took a trip up to Tulsa, Ok to visit Gabe's family.

We spent on morning at the aquarium



Popping fireworks on the 4th.

Maeve and Evelyn were both a bit distressed by the loud sounds of the fireworks.

Maeve now has 7 teeth and in the past few days has started walking. She loves eating, following her sister around, and being cuddled.

Evelyn will be 3 in a few months and is growing too fast. Her vocabulary grows everyday and she continues to amaze me with what she says and does. She has become quite the little helper around the house as well.

As most of you know my father passed away on July 4th. He battled cancer for 10 years and we are grateful for the time we had with him. He is no longer in pain. I am also thankful for the outpouring of love and support from all our friends. We are truly blessed to have such wonderful people as friends. Tears are starting to emerge so I will stop for now.
