THE EZELL FAMILY: Busy summer and 10 months old!

This has been a busy month in our house! We have been out of town for three weekends in June and have really enjoyed getting to spend time with family, but we are happy to have a little time to relax at home!

We spent Father's Day weekend in Warren and also got to go to the annual Pink Tomato festival. We were excited to get to see everyone in Warren. The kids had a great time playing in the pool and Benjamin got in some good swimming practice and even went down the slide at Aunt Gwen and Uncle Jimmy's a few times. No fear! He loves the water!

We went back to the Pink Tomato festival that night so Nana and Papaw could go to the concert, and so Keegan could go on some rides. Benjamin tried his first carnival ride with Keegan and Daddy!

He was brave!

Tired from a long weekend!!

Both kids slept for three hours on the way home!! They had such a fun time with the family! (And it helps make the 5 hour drive a little more manageable)

We spent the next week in Mexico with Lolo, Lola and Nini, and then the next weekend we headed back to Arkansas for Daddy's 20 year high school reunion in Arkadelphia!

Nana, Aunt Michelle and Keegan came down to stay with us so Mommy and Daddy could go to Daddy's reunion Saturday night. It was a fun night!

Here are a few pictures from the reunion

Sunday morning, we headed to Lake DeGray for a little swimming

It was nap time, so Caitlin decided the lake was a nice relaxing place for a snooze...

We also got to meet Grandpa Bill, Grandma Sandra, Uncle LB and his fiance Christine for lunch before we headed back home!

This was the only picture we got... :)

We were excited to celebrate July 4 and headed to the annual parade in Lakewood.

Getting ready to go. Happy girl!

Always smiling

Off to the parade

We stopped at our friend's party on Lakewood Blvd. for some parade watching and bouncing! Thanks to O'neill and Victoria for having us over. Benjamin loved getting to bounce!

We were going to try to keep the kids up and walk over to watch the Lakewood Country Club fireworks, but we decided to just play in the backyard instead. It was a long day, I think they were ready to get some rest :)
