June 2014

Brody and Payton,

June was filled with lots of fun and lots of busyness! The first week of June Brody finished school! This means you got to join Mommy and Payton on summer break Brody! Daddy left for the Dominican Republic. This was very hard for mommy to say goodbye! Mommy wanted to so badly go but also needed to stay for the two of you! We said lots of prayers for the team while they were away and they had a great trip!

While Daddy was gone, Nana came to stay. Brody was potty trained (for the most part) this week. I could not have done it without Nana’s help. I sure am glad I got it done while she was here. It was a hard, messy week but we made it through! Then on Friday of the second week, we headed with Nana to Dallas for Cherie’s wedding festivities. Brody did great, Payton did ok. She is not a huge fan of the car seat and got upset sometimes. Mommy had Papa take her halfway back home on Sunday to meet a friend. Payton was still a little young to attend a wedding. This also gave mommy the opportunity to surprise daddy when he got home from the DR. He was surprised and Brody was so so happy and ran right to him. He even tried going UP the escalator!

Then we had a week home. Busy week getting things together and kind of getting daddy settled. On Sunday we headed to OKC for PalCon. We got to visit with friends and daddy went to PalCon. On Wednesday, we headed to Amarillo for Stephanie’s wedding. It was a super busy week but it was so fun. Brody did not do great at rehearsal but nailed it at the wedding! Well, nailed it for a two year old! ;) The wedding was a blast. Then on Tuesday, we headed back to Bentonville for the last few days of June.  Brody stayed with Lolly and Peeps and got to head to Colorado for a few days. Hardest.thing.ever for Mommy! It may be a while before we do that again!!! Mommy cried all morning the day we left and lots while you were gone Brody! But you had fun and I am so glad you did! 

It was super busy but super fun. Both kids were troopers and did great!
