Owen, a.k.a. Spidey, had a great time this summer, swimming, fishing, exploring and playing with his best buddies: his brothers.

Owen is kind and thoughtful and very defensive of his brothers. He even gets mad at me if I reprimand Bennett for being mean to him.

Bennett and Owen enjoy "beat-boxing" together, playing superheroes, and sneaking into the neighbors' yard for raspberries. Sorry, Clair!

Bennett had all kinds of adventures this summer!

He spent lots of days at the lake in Washington (some warm, some less warm!), and on the river. He caught bugs, hiked, learned how to fish, and played with his brothers and cousins.

He was also featured at the family reunion talent show with his cousin, Justis, doing some sweet beat-boxing.

Bennett's first day of Kindergarten!

Bennett was so excited for his first day of school! We all rode bikes up to school together that morning. It was so much fun!
