Update Four: June

Just a quick intro for June - we leave for Minnesota early tomorrow morning and I wanted to get this posted before we go. Getting myself and Asher ready to travel always takes longer than I anticipate...

Mark's parents came to visit for a week toward the beginning of June, so they were able to get plenty of quality time with Asher. The weather treated them much better this year than it did last year, when it was cool and rainy for their entire visit. Of course, it did rain on Mark's one whole day off, so we got fairly soaked while waiting in line to get into the Boston Aquarium.

Later in the month, Mark had a conference in Palm Springs, Calif., so Asher and I headed to Athens for a visit so we wouldn't be home alone. We had a great time visiting with family and friends, though we missed having Mark there with us.

Now for the pictures. As usual, I'll start with a more recent one and then go into the June pics. Enjoy...

Asher likes to be held during dinner, so this is my solution - we often find food in his hair afterwards...
