It's a little strange now that school is out, Owen & I are missing our afternoons together but it's nice to have Ethan & Kamden home.
Although grocery shopping with 3 kids is no small feat.

Our little Squishy has become so independent over this past school year, he really has grown up into a little man & has so much enthusiasm for life but he is still so loving and gives the best snuggles.
On one of our last afternoons before school got out for the summer, Owen used Starburst and Smarties candies to make a sweet little version of himself.
He called it "Owen Stoker Van Leuven" because some days he thinks that is really his name. Other days he is
"Owen George-of-the-Jungle Stoker".
"Owen George-of-the-Jungle Stoker".
He was quite proud of his accomplishment but he gobbled it right up. 
He also ignores all rules of fashion and pairs his shorts with his beloved cowboy boots, but he's so cute he really pulls off the look.
Here he is enjoying a melty ice cream cone during one of our afternoon outings:
They are all growing up so fast, hopefully the summer slows down and we can enjoy some lazy days before we find ourselves back in the middle of the hustle and bustle of another school year.
Although if you ask Owen it can't come fast enough because he can hardly wait to start PreSchool in September!
