16 years of togetherness

Hello everyone! Happy Summer! I hope you are all doing well. We've been keeping ourselves busy with all the outdoor things lately.





At Forest Park in Camden.










































This little dog has been on a lot of adventures in her short time of being a Basile! She goes everywhere with us. -Even the icecream stand!




We haven't had much luck fishing this year.

Not a big NY surprise to have a snow day in May!






A happy Mother's Day! I am the luckiest.




Ashton and I have been reading in the yard together on some of the not-so-hot days. He reads a chapter, then I'll read a chapter. We try to finish a book a day!

Our Lunchtime read aloud




Waiting for the rain




The kids are addicted to Full house - The other day, Eli ran to me yelling "Mom! Mom! Aunt BECKY is going to have a baby!" It was so funny to hear the excitement in his voice.


Josie uses nail polish to dress her Barbies!


You're the one - You're the sunshine!














The Series Josh and I have been addicted to! It's the BEST. Think - Survivor but without "the extra." ...And they teach you survival skills along the way! We love it!


Happy Father's Day! We hit the Jackpot with this guy!






Hard to believe that June is coming to an end...






Our nighttime read aloud... Love this one.


Yes, this snake skin was right near my head where I sit beside the creek...




I don't know what we ever did without this little dog.
