Spring in Thomasville

We've done a lot. The good part is that I have a ton of blog material. The bad part is, I've had no time to blog. But the lazy days of summer are here.

In April we went to Port Aransas with our best friends, Val and Mer. 

The beach had so much seaweed that there were backhoes loading it into dump trucks. Also, there were sea lice. Ever heard of them? They are crazy. Crazy horrible. And they live in seaweed. See where I'm going with this? 

Also, the sand was so fine that it couldn't really be brushed off of anything, and I was nervous to use my camera on the beach. 

So here's one of the few pictures I took during our vacation...

I think it's a fair representation of the trip. I know with the sea lice/seaweed situation, it sounds like it was a disaster. So wrong. Because any trip with Val and Mer is full of pants-peeing laughter. In other words, it doesn't matter where we go together, it's always going to be the best vacation ever.

Shortly after the trip, this happened...

Which compelled me to turn this...

Into this...

That was followed by many hours of wondering how in the world we got here so fast. 

But there wasn't much time before I had to do this...

Which turned into a huge fire hazard, much to Otto's delight...

I wanted to stop and wonder some more. 

But we decided this needed to happen on the last day of school...

Moves were busted...

Groves were gotten on...

And I realized too late that we never taught Sofie you should always be friends with ugly girls.

So you can be the cutest.

 

I realized the teens at my party were the least of my worries...

And even when loads of important, crazy, loud and frantic things are happening...

Important things like this still can...

Life is good.
