First Day of Summer

Today was the first official day of Summer vacation and it was a not too shabby.  We actually all slept in until 7AM and then had morning snuggles.
We ran some important upcoming birthday (Marty's) errands and then headed to our friend's house for the afternoon.  They recently moved to a lake front house and we thoroughly enjoyed all of their water toys and their company.

When Marty and I first met Jen and Markus  Jen and I were both pregnant with our second children.  Our due dates were one day apart and we ended up having Benjamin and Ellie within hours of each other.

We both vividly remember texting each other from our respective hospital beds when we were alone at night while our husbands were both back at home with our first borns - Josie and Mia.

We have so many cool things in common with this family that it would be take too long to list here.  We do not see each other nearly enough but when we do it is magic.

Thanks, Jen for an awesome first day of summer.
We ended the day with dinner on the deck while the beach towels dried in the sun... ahhh, SUMMER!!!
