19wThese weeks... they are far too short in the summertime. The beaches are fantastic, the dog walks are amazing and the time with friends is never enough.We made some pretty great memories again this week. And trust me, when I think back to this winter? All I can do is be grateful for our health and being well enough to get out and do so much. Enjoy the photos.01wEzra and I had a visit to my friend Leah's this week to spend some time with her little boy (above) and, of course, Diggs (below).10w 11wEzra is flat out SMITTEN with this dog. It is beyond adorable.12wWe met up with our friends Tom and Lora this weekend as well and had breakfast and beach time over at Lake Harriet. They brought the donuts and we brought the sand toys. That Aurora (in the background) is always wearing the cutest stuff.13wAlso, the rec department was teaching their sailing lessons out on the lake that morning, and it was super fun to watch.14wIs that Aurora adorable or WHAT?15wThen Ezra started the hilarious game of throwing buckets of lake water at mom while I tried to dodge them. Look at the glee on his face. I managed to stay dry, but while refilling his bucket, the kid fell right into the drink and since we forgot backup clothes (bad parents) he had to ride home in the stroller in only a diaper. Being as he fell fast asleep, I don't think he minded a bit.17wHere he is pre-nap noshing on a donut hole, enjoying the breeze.18wWhen Ezra wakes up after his nap in a good mood, he loves to scream and jump on the bed like some sort of crib warrior. Here it is in full effect.20wOh yeah. That's fun.21wJamie snapped this shot of us making art on the sidewalk this weekend.22wAnd I absolutley adore this photo of Ezra sitting with Magda in her corner of the yard. That right there? Those are my kids.
