J&B Jensen: summer weekends

July is my month of mini-vacations! But in June... it was our month of stay-cations. Lots to do in this city in the summer!

(These photos are a little old already because Obi is clearly much smaller than today!)

Something happens to a college city when the students leave. It comes alive in a whole new way. All the sudden, there is parking spots downtown and less mopeds on the road. It also seems like it takes a little less time to get across town.

And there's tons of stuff to do on weekends. And when there isn't anything "official" happening, there's always tons of garage sales.

I am loving my weekends lately. It means I survived another week and we get 2 full days with Ben! I can see so much more why God designed a child to have two parents. Sometimes you just need to hand them off!

Our philosophy is that we will do what we would do normally. And with our baby, we will adjust accordingly! Learning lots of flexibility and patience. And an all around "new way" of doing things!

Here's us at a blues festival.

Did you hear about the landfill fire? This was the night it happened and you can see the smoke in the background. We are several miles away at this point.

Then a weekend with some downtown family fun.
