Memories!

Lee Ann is going through a lot of old pictures so that we can actually print them out and put them in physical albums. Needless to say, it is incredible to be reminded of the sweet life we have had with these little girls. Here are two of our favorite pictures...

This picture was taken when Jennalee was two and Adeline was brand new. If you look closely, you'll see that they have on the same outfit. A friend gave Adeline these gowns as a shower gift but Jennalee could, and did, wear them all the time. Jennalee has always been so tiny. Even now she and her younger sister are the exact same weight (35 pounds at 5 1/2).This picture is vintage Adeline. She, like her sister in the picture above, is about two years old. However sweet Jennalee was at two, that is how mischievous Adeline was at that age. As she is growing up, it is fun to watch her use that fun-loving spirit for good rather than ill.
We are so blessed.

Growing Up

Every now and then you get overwhelmed at how much your children are growing up. Jennalee is in one of those stages where she looks older every day. How can this be the same little girl that burst into our lives during our second year of seminary? Wasn't that just a few months ago?

Mountain View

Another Dunn family vacation in our favorite little town - Mountain View, AR. It was a short trip this time; about three days. But it was really fun. You may get tired of seeing pictures from this place but we never get tired of going there.

For the first time, I (Reed) felt confident enough with my banjo skills to join one of the nightly jams. These sorts of jams happen all over the downtown square almost every evening. The girls' love their ice-cream... and in Mountain View it's cheap and good.

One fun thing we did was go on a trail ride. Tarik stayed with the grandparents and we took the two older girls out for some special time.

The ranch not only did trail rides, we got to hang out at their petting "zoo" as well.

We should mention that this was Tarik's first camping trip and she did great. She loved it!
Of course, we love that town, but the best part of any vacation is the time we get to spend as a family. Nothing beats that.
