Where have the "dog days" gone?

The summer of 2013 has been so good to us so far.  Not a weekend has gone unplanned, and we wouldn't have it any other way -- although, we do look forward to sleeping in again at some point. Ha!

To keep up with all the friends we've seen, the family we've loved, and the memories we've made -- I present the following series of highlights. 


End of May:

Evan served as commencement speaker for New Deal HS graduation!
The principal told him his speech was the best he'd ever heard. #proudwife
Andy came to visit... we of course had to pay homage to his new sweet gig on CNN.
Some "boy time" at the pool.
COD nerds reunited.
June:
Allison's bridal shower/bachelorette party!
Cutest cake ever.
The beautiful bachelorette.
So glad we got some lake time in.
Schmal getting some float time in on Lake Alan Henry.
Lake Baby.
And some wake surfing makes all well with your soul.
Road trip to Clovis for Kristen's shower!
Me, Mrs. Howard, Mrs. Hirth... and Geoffrey.
July:
4th of July concert outside the Lubbock County Courthouse -- Josh Abbott Band!
Sister-in-law came into town!
Colin & Christy taking in some Texas country and two-stepping... I think they're naturals.
Breaking in the awesome wedding gifts Colin & Christy made for us!


Evan models the Mizzou side.
Kaci's Bachelorette Party at the Gaylord Texan.
My favorite picture. 
Somewhere in all of this, our stations launched HD.  
My favorite team!
He looks even better in HD... is that possible? 
Mid-July, my brother's family came to visit... loved the time with my favorite niece and nephew.
Meaghan and Parker approve of the new look!
John & Kelly: busted. 
Didn't take them long to move right in to our seats!
Parker & Paige hit it off.  I'll save this photo for their wedding slideshow. ;)
Fun evening of sidewalk barbeque!
Cattle Baron's Ball 2013!
And oh yeah, at some point Evan found time to design & build this outdoor table. The middle section holds ice!
That's all for now! Even as I write this, I have more to post. But that gets me caught up. Next up: weddings! We have 6 on our calendar... two down, 4 to go. Love all the love!

UPDATE: I don't know how I could forget, but I have to make mention of the birth of Danielle and Cody's sweet baby girl Ella Marchesa.  She's such a big deal, even E!News is covering her daily routine.
