Our friends Mr. and Mrs. J got some great photos of a group of the little girls from our church at a recent picnic. Here's their daughter, Heidi, giving Kate a big hug. I understand that they promptly fell over in a heap and started crying after this photo was snapped, but don't let that detract from the sweetness of the moment.

Wagon rides! Here we have Ellie, Lily, Kate and Heidi. They couldn't get enough of the wagon, and suckered quite a few people into giving them rides. I mean, how could anyone resist all that cuteness?

And a photo of Kate and I, rare, since I'm usually behind the camera. I've given up trying to find photos in which we are both looking at the camera and she actually looks happy to be with me. Now I just settle for me looking happy to have caught her.
