The Badger Family : Living- Laughing- Loving: Sweet Sweet Summertime

We are loving our sweet summertime. We just cannot get enough of what it has to offer! I have so many pictures ( mostly from my phone) from the past two months, I think it is time to catch up. I know all the grandparents will enjoy this. Here are many pictures with words of course, this is the easiest way for me to blog now a days. Enjoy! Hope you all are enjoying your summer.

Hudson loves his playtime. The boys are starting to interact more now when playing. So neat to watch!

This is where my Hudson and I love to hang out and sing and rock, and rock and sing. Our front porch, its so relaxing. Early morning and at night before bedtime, this is where you will find our family chillaxin!

Ethan and Nathan are really enjoying golfing together now. Ethan is starting to love it more and more.

Mr. Ethan always up for an adventure. This picture was taken during our daily "early" morning walk at about 6:30am. He insists on wearing his Superman shirt.every.single.time. I am not so sure how to keep up with cleaning it.

Early Morning walk. The boys love it, and so do I. Great way to start our day.

I never posted a Happy Birthday to my Hubby! A couple weeks ago we celebrated his birthday. I ordered these adorable golf cupcakes from a friend of mine for Nathan to take to work. They were beyond delish!

Thanks grandma for my cute little outfit! It has shorts and a hoddie great for days that are cooler.

I cannot get enough of my babies arms, I am in love with his rolls. I could look at my baby all day. Isn't he the cutest little angel sleeping?

Playdates with cousins are the best!
