First Day...

Kevin's first day of his new job!...Brown & Brown Insurance...We are so proud of you, Babe/Daddy! We love you!

Carolyne's Big Day & Saying Goodbye...

Good morning sweet Ava!

Carolyne's 1st day of school...of her last year of elementary!

Such a pretty girl...& stylish too!

She gets it from her Mom...

It was my turn for a picture with Carolyne, but she saw some boys across the street & got embarrassed...Wow, how quickly Auntie got denied...I DON'T THINK SO!

Love this girl!

Now, I get my picture...ha!

I want two...

So sweet!  Have a great day, Carolyne!

And we say goodbye...for now!  LOVE you all...xo!

Family Night...again! Love it!

Adam & his Uncle Bill...

You know it's been a long day/week when this happens...Sweet dream Ava Bean!

Poppy Time!

Oh how Poppy loves his succulents!  & Oh how Poppy loves his grandkiddos!  Put them together & it could just be his heaven on earth!

P.S.  Love the look Ava!

Bathing Beauty...

The traditional bath in the sink...is this a Claridge thing??  Oh, Olive...you are just SO stinkin' cute...even during bath time!

Off to Malibu for some Fun in the Sun!

AG & Adam...

 Muscle Man Uncle Dan!

Nice finish Kev!

Uncle Kevie & Carolyne...

Uncle Dan, Poppy & Gramma took the kiddos on a hike up to the top of the rock....Kev & I opted for some quiet time to ourselves!  (If you look closely, you can see them up there!)

A day at the beach always makes for a great appetite...& smiles all around!

My beautiful sister...Dude!

Cheers!

Family Night!

My Sweet Carolyne & Sweet Olive...Can't get enough of these two! 

Uncle Dan's toy...the 'Rhino'...

The girls...

Had to get another...too sweet!

And another!

Adding in the boys...all 6 grandkiddos!

Gramma & Poppy's 'Heaven on Earth'!...

Love it!

Getting silly!

The WHOLE family!

Adam getting his time with Olive...

Loving Olive Bear...

One more!

Off to California (to FINALLY meet our sweet Olive!)...

Oh, a happy moment for me...holding sweet Olive girl for the first time!

I'm in LOVE!  (Thanks Mom for dressing Olive in her favorite onesie!)

Ava was SO excited to hold baby Olive...

And of course, Adam was too!

Cousins...

Our Lemonade Stand...

Today, Adam & Ava had their 1st Lemonade Stand! They were so excited & pumped...they had been asking all summer long to have one! It started off great...a few customers right off the bat (who tipped well too!)...then after a LONG lull (Well, in kid time is was LONG...about 10 minutes!) one more customer, but that was it!  We made them stick it out for an hour, which wasn't easy...especially for Adam!  It may just be the 1st & last lemonade stand we have!

Lucky Adam!

What fun to see baby Violet...again!  We sure like getting all this playtime in with the Kappa crew & kiddos!
