June was another fun-filled month. Among the activities, we had a wonderful visit from the Vandervaarts, bought a minivan, went to the Children's Museum, a fun visit from Amber and Colin, and had a Carroll Family Reunion. Claire is getting bigger and growing more personality by the day. It has been so fun to watch her grow and sometimes we can't believe how big she is! Here are some pictures from our month of June...
