Songs of the Summer

Aidan and Julia,

You both have songs in your hearts, and that makes me happy, because singing and music make me happy too!



We sing a lot- whether it's rocking out to some of our favorite 'jams' in the car, our Beatles/Ben Folds (or even Kenny Loggins) lullabies each night, or working on our Michael Jackson or Les Mis during the day, or even channeling our inner Weird Al and making our amazing parodies, we sing at least once a day!




It's good for the soul!



And it's so good for me and your mom to see how much JOY music is bringing both of you!


So, what song exactly is in your heart? 

Here's a snippet of what's been spinning on our records in the summer of '17.





Rock on, my children. Rock on.



August Roundup

Ahh...sweet August. End of summer, Beginning of school. Still enough time for endless, aimless fun with friends and family, and the promise of new beginnings just 'round the corner.

August 2017 was filled with amazing times with our family- both from London and Houston. Uncles are sweet and will pay for your horse rides. And there's nothing cooler than wrestling with your older cousins! You guys brought out the kiddos in them!










 You had lots of swimming and a sleepover with Brady!




We had Daddy-and-kids trips to the Zoo...


August has plenty of time for Toad Hotels...


 ...self portraits...

...arcades with friends...

...movies and wrestling with pals...



...car washes...



...getting stuck on bike rides in the rain...



...making yard art...


...catching lizards...


...and catching some zzzs.

August is hot in Texas, but this video just shows how cool you guys are...through out the summer month!



So many sweet memories and action-packed fun!
