Random Pictures

It's been awhile since I've loaded new pictures and as I was going through all of our pictures I realized that there were a lot of things that I forgot to post about. So here is a link to a whole bunch of random pictures from the shortest trip to Galveston ever to Easter to Memorial Day to Father's Day.

Speaking of Father's Day....we didn't get to go out and do much that day since Riley was not feeling 100% and it was extremely hot outside. We had a nice breakfast, had a leisurely morning, puttered around the house all day, and then grilled up some bratwurst for dinner and had chocolate covered strawberries for dessert. It was a very nice relaxing day. Riley and I are both very lucky to have Ben....he is the most wonderful father. Even though he is starting his lab and is working non-stop he always makes time to spend with Riley even though it is probably killing him. So I can go to work early in the morning, Ben gets Riley ready for daycare every morning and drops him off. He always makes sure that he is home for dinner, then we have family time until Riley goes to bed at 8:00 pm. Ben then heads back to lab and doesn't get home until midnight or even later some nights. Even though this schedule is rough on him he does it so that he can spend as much time with Riley and I as possible and we both really appreciate it. We love him lots and lots and I couldn't imagine raising Riley with anyone except him. He is everything that I think a good father should be - loving, funny, patient, silly, strong (someone needs to be able to tote Riley around!). We love you Ben!
