The Lewis Edition: August

August was a great mix of catching up after being away

and relaxing before Russell's busy season started.

Here are a few highlights from our month!

Caitlyn's 1st birthday;

the big one-year-old front-facing in her car seat for the first time!

She thought it was pretty neat!

First ice cream cone (with frozen yogurt)!

:)

Time to open gifts!

Her expression when she pulled off the blanket and saw

the doll underneath was priceless!

Thrilled with her baby and cradle!

😍😍😍

We laughed at how she constantly held her

arm up to keep her new purse from dragging!

This summer Becky, Lydia, Anna and I decided to go in

together to do some Operation Christmas Child boxes.

I got some cute skirts and other items for less than $1/each,

and the girls made some cute crocheted animals.

We had a blast shopping the back-to-school sales

and ended up getting everything else we needed!

The girls did a great job packing a LOT of stuff into each box!

Our boxes, all finished!

Anna :)

At the end of August we went up to help with a

multi-family yard sale at Deborah and Daniel's.

The cutest little helper ever!

We love you, Caitlyn!

Mama came down for the sale, and spent a day

with Russell and me afterward, which was so fun!

We also had dinner with a dear friend in Dallas one day,

but we were having so much fun that I forgot to snap a picture!

Until next month!! :)
