Pinewood Park


Matthew loves to play at the park! This past week, we met some friends at our subdivison's park and pool for the morning and Matthew had a blast both swimming and playing!

Lake Fayetteville




Saturday evening, the Stay family took a stroll around Lake Fayetteville and stopped at Veteran's Memorial Park for Matthew to play! For the first time, Matthew discovered there is more to a park than just swings! It was fun to watch him explore and try new things :)

21 months on June 21st


Our little boy turned 21 months over the weekend...it's so hard to believe that in just a few months, he'll be two years old! Oh my, where has the time gone??? Matthew loves playing outside and loves to go swimming! He likes to ring the doorbell and open and close the door on his playhouse, play t-ball with anyone who is willing, and loves to go over to our neighbors and look at their flag! Friends tell us that Matthew has a very big heart and is very easy going and of course, we agree :) He's such a blessing and we thank God everyday for him!

The Stays in Sarasota


David and I got the opportunity to travel to Sarasota this Spring with David's company! He earned Gold Cup this year so Grandma and Grandpa "B" came and stayed with Matthew while we relaxed in Sarasota! We stayed at the Ritz, ate many wonderful dinners, went kayaking, David went golfing and I went to the spa for the day, we saw the musical HAIR and just enjoyed spending time with each other poolside!

Father's Day!

We celebrated Father's Day by attending church and going out for brunch in the morning at Susan's in Springdale! In the afternoon, David went golfing with his buddy, Chris! That evening, we grilled out, went swimming, and opened presents! Whew...what a day--we had a blast!!! David is the best Daddy to Matthew and such a blessing to him!!!

Wedding in Minneapolis







Last weekend, we traveled to Minneapolis for David's brother's wedding! Curt and Joyce were married on Friday, June 6th downtown Minneapolis! David was so honored to be Curt's bestman :) Matthew enjoyed the ceremony by running around and the reception dinner eating chicken strips and fries! Of course, the cake was his favorite!
