June Recap

Enjoy this review of June and seeing all the little trips we took!

The first week of June we traveled to Marvell, AR for a cousin's graduation.

This is Mom's brother and sister-in-law and all their kids.

It was so nice to see Grandpa and Grandma there!

Congratulations Evan!

The Hellwig/Silvey clan!

Jacob and Mom traveled up to North Arkansas one weekend for an archery shoot Jacob was attending. They also made a stop at Will and Brittany's house in Missouri so stay tuned for some cute pictures!😊

They stopped at the Springdale Fire Department and Will gave them a tour of the place.

Uncle Jacob was kept pretty busy playing with the littles!😉

They spent Saturday night at W+B's and went to church with them on Sunday.

Will showing them where they are planning to build their house.

Mom and Jacob had a wonderful visit and it was hard to leave when it came time to.😊

The four of us kids and good friend, Jonathan, were delighted to attend an Inspiration Quartet concert in Conway!

The Lord has really blessed this quartet in their singing ministry, and this night actually marked four years since the four of them came together to continue the Inspiration Legacy. 

The last Saturday in June, we traveled to Jacksonville, Texas for a cousin's wedding.

Amanda made the cake and did a great job!

Congratulations Luke and Lauren!

And they're off!

Red, white, and blue themed desserts!

 

It didn't take us long to get the kayaks out!
