Fat Lip 'Joe' {Rachel}

About a week ago at one of Reed's baseball games he had a little accident. He was playing Center Field when the 2nd base man missed a line drive. Reed was there to back him up but the ball took a bad hop on the way. This was the result:

Lucky for him he had just gotten his new retainer 9 hours earlier. His teeth where already super sensitive, but the retainer did save his teeth from getting knocked out!

Let me just tell you that you would be surprised to see what 6 days could do for a fat lip like that! 

He is one tough kid! 

Love,

Skating in the Summer {Rachel}

Last night we went Ice Skating! I thought it was kinda weird that we where Skating in the Summer, when we probably should be Swimming... but it was good fun all the same! :)  The Baxter's invited us, and because my dad is out of town we really had nothing else to do so my mom agreed to take us.

Jessica and I spend most of the time helping out little brothers find their feet. We had to laugh when Joseph fell down at least 3 times every time we went around the rink! Reed was a little more cautious though. By the end we where all Skating like pros.

Happy Summer!

Love,
