Summer!

The beautiful weather is finally here and we are all making the most of it. Over the July 4th holiday, Owen and I, Grandpa Leonard and Grady traveled to Staten Island to see Emma and to New Jersey. Staten Island was cool, for those of us who have never been there but definitley not green enough! Emma's coast guard base is practically right under the Verazzano Bridge leading from Staten Island to Brooklyn, what an amazing site up close. She was crazy enough, along with Sean, to put us all up for a night and day or two. Off to Toms River, NJ we went to see Aunt Kathy, Uncle Steve, Eric and David. They put together a pretty awesome cookout on the holiday and hosted about 20 people for a relaxing afternoon of food, talking, and backyard fun. The fireworks show for the 4th was pretty cool...and would have been even better without the rain that started during it!
For those of you who do not know, Owen will be getting a baby brother in November! Yes, we just found out that our new baby is a boy. Owen seems to know what we mean when we tell him "baby brother", but then he's only 2 years old.

Enjoy the pictures, everyone!
