Kitchen Update

Over the last few months we have been working on a kitchen update. We've been wanting to change out our counter tops for awhile. I wanted the kitchen to look lighter, brighter and have more counter space.  We added a cabinet to the island and made the counter flat instead of raised. We did a light grey/white granite counter with a marble herringbone backsplash. We also added pendant lights over the island. I LOVE the finished look!

Saying goodbye to his brothers:


and his Mommy... I needed more than a few hugs before I could let him go:



So proud of our big boy!


Jakob and his team, all ready to get on that plane!

Beach Day

After school on Tuesday it was so hot outside, so we went straight to the beach! 

The boys went in the water:


We had a picnic supper:


The boys played in the sand:

I love summer!
