Happy July!

Hailey's First Haircut

Hailey had a few curls quite longer than the rest so we took her to the salon to get her first haircut. She was very nervous at first and did not like getting her hair washed, but loved the penguin cover and had fun watching getting her hair cut in the mirror. And of course, picking out a pretty flower clip afterwards. I think it was just as fun for me to watch my little girl look so big.

Father's Grapes

We had a wonderful weekend celebrating Father's Day and eating our home-grown grapes.

The Milwaukee Connection

Little Timmy finished law school and the entire family (except HassellCastle West) traveled to Milwaukee for the graduation. Around 40 years ago my dad had an internship in Milwaukee. During that summer he decided to be baptized a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Coincidentally, Little Timmy now attends church in the same building he was baptized in.

Hard to find a better looking family

Bre's Wedding / San Diego

This past weekend was my sister Bre's wedding in San Diego. We had such a good time, and it was so fun to see my family.

Day to Day

Hailey drew her first stick-person today! She has been drawing smiley faces for a few months, but today I was surprised to see a whole person, including fingers.

Lindsay got a cute new outfit, and is a wonderful, happy baby. She is started to roll all over the room.

Last week the girls and I accompanied some friends to Carlsbad, CA. More pictures to come, but here's one of Lindsay and I on the beach.

Daddy Daughter Campout

Since we don't have a son, Alex made the "father/son" campout a "daddy/daughter" campout. Hailey was so excited to sleep in a sleeping bag in a tent and make smores. They had a great time, and I'm so glad she got the chance to go camping with Alex.
