June has come and gone.

Well June has come and gone and for most of the month this was my life -


Hundreds of students and their families came to campus for new student orientation!! There were 16 sessions and out of those 4 weeks I gained 342 new honors students for Fulbright Honors Program! Now we do still have 2 more sessions in August so that number could be even larger before the summer is over!

This proved to be very draining on my physically but we were still able to have a great time as a family! Here are the photo highlights from the month.

With the summer in full swing we did everything we could to stay cool. Michael even made Emma her very own popsicles


We played in the pool...well it was the dogs pool but Emma took it over...along with Brinkley's favorite ball


I moved Emma's outside play area onto our deck where there is a fan and shade and she loved it!


 Enjoying some chair time


And other than looking for birds, Emma's favorite past time is looking for bugs!!


Michael's garden really started producing 


And that meant he started canning 


Even Brinkley was feeling the heat so we got him a little trim.

Father's day was a big success. I am so happy to have both of these wonderful daddy's in my life!


Emma started painting more at home to beat the heat.


We had some pizza and cheered on the Hogs for their win over Kent State



Had some Sunday photo shoots after church in our pretty dress.



And even found time for a play date with Sara Kate and Landry.


Where Emma would only play in the mud puddle


And swing in SK's swing...which we later went out and got one for Emma as a result!


That pretty much wraps up the month of June. It really flew by!!

Be blessed, 
Jill

Sweet pictures - I love Emma's artwork! Tell me about her playhouse and car when you get a chance... we're considering getting Jade something like that for her birthday.

Cute cute! So glad our play date made your June blog! :-) We'll have to do it again soon! And I LOVE the black and white picture of Emma sitting in her chair. So cute!
