Matt & Molly

My preshy nephew, Matthew, married the most darling girl on Planet Earth, Molly, on Friday.  I flew down for the wedding weekend and I'm so glad I did.  What a treat.  I love these two kids and am so happy for them.

 

Growing Up!

Happy Girl, Big Hair

We pulled out Christiana's braids the other day and her hair was so glorious, I had to photograph it!  She doesn't want to leave it down so I always end up putting it back up in pigtails or whatever.  But just for a brief moment, she had flowing, soft, curly hair.

 

 

And I love her little personality, too.  She makes me laugh so much.  She's always smiling and happy.  Please stay that way, Little Miss-Miss.

Summer Fun

We spend our days...

running through the sprinklers...

 

 ...chasing the dog...

 ...and going on bike rides together.

Mom's Birthday

On the 5th of July, we celebrated my mom's 74th birthday at Kelley's home.  We invited my famous Goold cousins, my Aunt Judy and Uncle Gary, and had another crazy bash, as equally fun as the Barlow reunion the day before.

 

Happy Birthday, Mom!  We love you!

 

 

Just Half

This is about half of my extended Barlow family.  My grandparents, E. Garrett Barlow and Evva Burnham, had 7 children.  Five of them are seated.  And then these five siblings had their children and grandchildren standing next to and behind them.  It was quite the party.  Jason called the Barlows a "rowdy bunch"!  Ha ha.  What a blast we had all getting together on the 4th of July.
