July 2021

Late, late, late to the game, but I am determined to recap our final full month of Summer 2021, even if I am a couple weeks late. My little Lus started back to school last week, so I am able to take a crack at the ol' keyboard again and fill my pages with memories and photos before they escape me and the holidays have arrived - ha! 

July kept us busy but was full of so much fun! We...

...had a surprise visit from a few cousins and Bammy, while my sister and her new hubby were honeymooning in Hawaii






...got to watch Banks and Raleigh both go to Camp Rock together (our church's overnight summer camp), with this being Banks' last year and Raleigh's first 




...had a blast celebrating the 4th of July at our 'hood pool party, cookout, and fireworks extravaganza 



...had some fun at various day camps, including football, dance, and greenway camps







...squeezed in plenty of friend time







...and made new memories as a family every chance we got








July, you were good to us. An awesome last full month of summer for sure!

Luton Beach Trip 2021

I am NEVER happier than when I'm on a beach. Throw in extra family members that I love so much, and my heart is so very full! In July, we headed to Holden Beach, home of Lutonpalooza 2020 (albeit a different, somewhat *tamer* experience this go round), and had so much fun with our Luton fam! 

A glimpse into the countless memories made with our final family beach week of 2021: 

































So, so happy. <3
