My cousin Kate, Ben, and I took an adults-only hike (it's been FOREVER since I've done that!) along the Piedra River. It's so beautiful! The water is high and flowing fast...but the hike was beautiful.
Some of these views remind me of the English countryside. Not that I've ever been to England, but it's how I imagine the English countryside.

When we got home from the hike, we decided to take the kids to play Putt Putt Golf. Every single year, we experience tears and frustration from the kids. It's oh-so fun. Yet they beg to go back and play every single year. So this year, Kate and I took the three big kids (baby Eva was napping) and it was fun. There were some tears from Walker, but the other two had a blast.
Lainey, saying something to Lucie :)
This is what Walker did when I asked him to smile. Ha!
Which one of these is not like the others?
I think this was the best smile Walker could manage at that moment.
Sorry. Can't help it, Walker. When he saw these pictures, he wanted me to delete them!
As soon as Walker and I got some one-on-one time, he had a much better attitude. It's almost like he approaches every situation as a competition. He has a very sensitive heart, but man. He is competitive. He puts tremendous pressure on himself. I tried to explain to him how to hold the club and how to line up the ball (like I know anything) and once he kinda figured that out, he was pleased with his efforts. I think he likes knowing the steps for success. If there's a plan in place, he feels more confident. :) That actually makes sense to me!

I just love these two and am so thankful for them.

Either Walker or Lucie took this one...I let them just have fun taking pictures.
Lainey took this one!
My dad. :) Either Lainey, Lucie, or Walker took this one (they all forgot who took what).

I'm so sad this picture turned out blurry. Because these four are sweethearts. And so stinking cute.

Sofi. Clearly sensing something amiss.
Eva was so concerned that the clouds were "broken." Kate (her mom) is walking her up to the road to get a better view of the "broken" clouds.
