Jon Birthday

Preparing for Daddy's birthday required extensive secret missions. Good thing the crew knows what they're doing!



Cohen Crazies were eager to give Daddy the present they made for him in another of their secret missions.


We went outside to admire the great decorations the kids had made...

...When - SURPRISE!!! More party guests arrived.

Happy Birthday, Daddy/Uncle Jon!

August 2023

In August, we brought our children back together from various other caretakers. We spent half of the month still in summer mode and the other half of the month getting back in school mode. And here are the remaining miscellaneous moments we captured on camera this month:

Hawaiian Falls

Even though the school year had officially started, we were still in summer mode with temperatures in the triple digits daily. The only way to survive and thrive is to get wet and remain wet. So off we went to Waco, Texas to discover Hawaiian Falls Water Park.
