Well, it's been a while since we've made any updates, so here are some highlights and cute pictures from a very busy spring/summer.

Father's Day
Even though the weather didn't cooperate, we spent the afternoon at Emerald Downs to watch some horse racing. They had a ton of events for kids—Alden's favorite was the pony rides. We place a few bets, and Alden cheered his heart out for #6, "Go number six, go number six!" but sadly, we never won.



Painting Outside
Alden received some fun new paintbrushes with different textures/bristles quite a while ago, but we just recently opened them up and gave them a try. He had a blast and painted several "flower" pictures.


A New Hat
Mimi & Papa know how much Alden loves trains so they gave him this adorable conductor's hat. It took some coaxing, but he finally decided that he'd wear it. Now all he needs is a whistle!
