This was from the first time we headed to Jess & Jay’s cottage back in the winter of 2007.
This was from last weekend.
Our little Amanda was missed so very much. It was different being there without her. I could only imagine how little Patrick would have chased the older kids as fast as he could on all fours. Maybe next year.
Our first evening there around the bonfire, Jay got down on one knee and proposed to Jessica. It was something that we had all been waiting so long for…not to mention Jessica had been waiting too :)
It was such a special moment. I am so honored that I was able to share in it with them. I could feel Amanda nudging me in the arm as if to squeal, “This is it!" And then when Jessica kept insisting that Jay wasn’t actually proposing, I could hear her giggling. Love her, miss her!
We all had such a special time. Some tears, a lot of laughter.
We spent lots of time on the boat.
We hugged tight.
Uncle Jay took Max & Molly went tubing for the very first time. They LOVED it!
We ate…good stuff….like we always do.
We chatted around the bonfire. I’ll treasure that for a long time to come.
I can’t wait for all the reasons I get to see my girls over the rest of the summer!
Love you all!!!
