A Busy Start To Summer

We've had a busy week! Memorial weekend with the Bennett family, then the Cannon family came, kindergarten graduation, a new puppy, and a surprise visit from Ryan and Liz! Phew! Ryan and Liz will be here until Wednesday and then on Thursday the Rollins family will be here. Followed by a 2+ week roadtrip/vacation to Oregon to see my parents and siblings. We got this summer started with a bang! 

Anyway here are a few pictures from this week with the Cannon family.

 Grace gets nervous and quiet in crowds, especially when she doesn't know people so when the Cannons first came she was a bit shy. But she still loved Papa!
 And it didn't take her long to warm up. Cousin Drew was very sweet to her all week and played with her like an older brother (except maybe even nicer)! 

 Whenever Marilyn is the host there is sure to be lots of big meals involved. She had a nice set up in their garage with tables and chairs where we could eat out of the sun but still enjoy the nice weather. Plus if the kids spilled on the floor it was no big deal.
 Phoebe got a teaching job in Rifle starting this fall and we are so excited she is back here with us. This is Phoebe and Charlie with Alicia's little baby girl, Sydney. 
 I just thought this picture was funny. Sadie was pouting about something and Charlie was just hanging out with a random wheel. 
 And Ava requested a picture of her on the slide. :)
 Barry has been having a rough few months, first being diagnosed with cancer, then getting shingles, and just recently the cancer has started swelling and causing pain in his leg. That being said I couldn't help but snap pictures of him whenever I could and I had to get one of him with his only daughter.

The Cannons left yesterday and a few hours later Ryan and Liz showed up. (They must have figured out how cool surprises are by watching all the Morgan surprise videos!). We have a packed next few weeks and I'm sure there will be many more blog posts to come. Hurray for Summer!!
