Fun with Daddy and Brother



Livin' La Vida Matthews

We went to San Antonio for a weekend stay at the Matthews' compound. As you can see, it was filled with industrious work at the table, many costume changes, and a rocking dance party. Thanks, N, G, E, L, and H for a fabulous time!








Mastering the BBQ


Matt got a grill as an early birthday present, and we've had fun breaking it in. 
Both kids love ribs, it turns out.

Sometimes you have S'mores Pie for dessert.

Camping-A-Go-Go

We went on our first ever family camping trip! It was organized by some friends at a 100 year old dance hall in the Hill Country. Friendly people, dogs, a huge potluck supper, BBQ, and swing music made for the prefect combination of a great weekend.
