our first time to turner falls

we took some kiddos from gbc to turner falls on friday. the place is beautiful...somewhere that we hope to return to in the future. we swam in the cold water, sat in the waterfalls, explored an abandoned castle and hiked to a cave. it was such a fun, relaxing time. btw...their snowcones were fabulous!

this was a little tunnel on the cliff. you could see the waterfall if you were brave enough to crawl through the tunnel.

these girls were inseparable.

the hike to this cave was slightly treacherous, but jackson wanted to see it so his daddy obliged and carried him up there. meanwhile, i was doing alot of praying.

hot fun in the city

hardly any lines to wait in...beautiful day...perfect temp...good friends...made for a great day at six flags! the only downer was we left without a funnel cake.

summer cuts

tis the season for short hair cuts! against my better judgement, i agreed to let the boys shave their heads to keep cool this summer. i documented the experience with these lovely pics.
