Happy Birthday

I am so blessed with loving friends and family. Especially this one who went out of her way to make my birthday a very special day!

We were extremely overdue for family pictures. We had a very talented photographer, and friend, in Colorado take them for us. She did a fabulous job!

Santa is coming...

We enjoy going to dinner as a family. And since all the grandparents are in another state we don't get babysitters as often as we use to. We got together with some friends and made gingerbread houses. The kids were in heaven with the overload of sugary goodness they had to decorate their houses with. Instead of having Max make a house, we let him devour one of the fallen houses. Needless to say the kids thoroughly enjoyed themselves! We are so excited for Christmas!

Thanksgiving

We were able to be together with family for Thanksgiving and had so much fun! The kids travel really well and make it pretty enjoyable. Marley had so much fun with her cousins. We even made time for a girls Twinight! We are so blessed to have such wonderful family. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality and for delivering miracles! We love you all!

Karate Kid

Marley has said for a while that she wants to do karate so we signed her up or a month long class for her to try it out. She had so much fun and really enjoyed it. However, when the classes were done I asked what she would like to do next and she said dance. She is a dancer at heart, it bring her so much joy. So get ready for dance pictures and recital videos!

Life in Colorado

Summer weather...find some water and have fun!

 

Life is back to normal. The kids are happy and we are loving

it here.

Marley still loves to be in the kitchen creating and baking.

Summer fun is time with family, sparklers for the first time, 

watching fireworks and falling asleep on daddy's shoulders.
