Fishing with Dad and Papa!

We took the kids out fishing for the first time this year (this past weekend). The kids had a great time, so special thanks to Papa for picking us up! We took a trip to the bait shop down the street and found an area to fish in Admiral Farragut Park (a couple of miles from our house) - The kids ended up catching around 7-8 fish! Cameron's was first with his Catfish catch (and was VERY excited) - Hope you enjoy!

Graduations and pictures galore!

It's been an extremely busy few weeks so I'm sending more apologies for the delay in updating everyone! Cameron was happy to graduate from Kindergarten and had GREAT feedback from his teacher prior to entering 1st grade! Milena's excited to start Kindergarten this fall as well, and we're looking forward to having TWO elementary school students - Milena recently had her Preschool graduation (pictures below), and they've spent their summer so far playing outside as much as possible - I've been busy with work and Caitlin's been spending a lot of time working on a few paintings. We hope everyone's doing well and hope you enjoy the photos!

Wanted to share a few pictures that Cameron took over the past few days - Caitlin's been busy working on a couple of paintings and we all went to downtown Knoxville early this morning to take some more photos - When we uploaded our photos a few minutes ago, the following's a small collection of Cameron's work lol

Cameron turns 6!!!!

We want to thank everyone for their thoughtful gifts, and helping to make Cameron's 6th Birthday very special! He had a great time at his Birthday Party this past Friday, and we spent some time at home today (Monday) for his Birthday. We had plans on spending more time outside, but weather didn't cooperate as we had hoped :/ Cameron had fun regardless, and spent most of today playing inside with Milena and visiting with Lola/Papa. Next we'll start planning a Birthday party for Milena (w/ daily reminders from her)!

Many many thanks for everything and here's a few pictures taken over the last several days :)
