June was a month of visitors. But first, Kate and I made a trip to Costco to buy each of us a new carry-on for our upcoming move....yep, you read that right, we moved. Skip to August to read all about that.....
These are my FAVORITE carry-ons. I bought one for my girls trip to Europe and it was the best, but got damaged on the flight home, so I took it back. Then they went on sale at Costco, so I grabbed one for each of us!

On June 30th Seth and I celebrated 11 years of marriage. All of my family was in town, so we didn't really do anything exciting, but getting to celebrate our sweet son David being baptized was the perfect reminder to me that I made the best choice when I married Seth. He is an amazing husband and father. He is such a great example to me of love and service, and he is a great example to our kids, especially our boys!
