Lacey's First Trip to the Ocean

Lacey is now 25 pounds and crazier than ever. This past week, we headed down to the Oregon Coast with the Dyer family for a little beach vacation. We had a really cute house about 100 feet from the ocean. This kids kept Lacey entertained and everyone had a GREAT time!

Europe!

Matt was nice enough to let me travel to Europe with my parents this summer while he stayed home with Lacey (although, he DID get asked to go with us and he said NO). The trip was AMAZING...we visted the Czech Republic, Austria, Slovenia, Germany, Croatia, and England. We saw so many amazing places, ate some great food, and just had an all-around good time! I can't wait for the next trip!
