Most of these highlights don't include the kids but that is the Empty Nest life these days. I love the life we are living but sometimes I can't help but wish they were with us especially when it feels like we spend more time with Josh and Bailee then our own children. It's just weird after 18 years where your life revolves around your children and then suddenly everyone has many different experiences. In the end... that is just life and the way it's suppose to be. What matters most is that they are thriving and in some ways we are as well. I look back on this summer and remember many moments of joy and laugher and feel beyond grateful that I am able to embrace a new season of life.

Our trip to Costa Rica was a definite highlight of the summer. We stayed in house with the most beautiful view. Any trip that includes our people, a few drinks and a van always proves to produces many moments of laughter.
