July Phone Drop

We were away vacationing for the majority of the month, but are a few of the moments in between trips!

Our first meal in my parents new house!

Watoto Children's Choir came to Abby and I was able to see one of the little girls that I cared for as a baby 9 years ago, she's grown into a beautiful little lady!

21 lbs of freshly picked blueberries!

While the boys and I went to VBS, Matt and Evy got some quality time together

one morning they went on their first formal daddy/daughter date :)

VBS creations

these two - living their best life this summer!

BBQ picnic after an afternoon of swimming...bliss!

and a summer BBQ isn't complete without ice cream for dessert!

good to spend an evening with friends!

summer continues and so do the berries...blackberries are currently our berry of choice!

evening patio fondue to celebrate a sweet friends birthday!

Evy Mae's Flamingle

Sooo we don't do birthday party's very often, but when we do we go a bit crazy :)

Here are some pictures from Evy Mae's 1st Birthday Flamingle!!!

The sparkler was a big fail - she was terrified, but the cupcake made up for terror!

Sharing with daddy.

We asked people to wear white, pink or ANYTHING with flamingos on it and some people went ALL out and we loved it!!!

Fun to have Papa here for the party!

We shared a taco buffet for supper, followed by cupcakes for dessert...

and different Flamingo decorated cookies as treat bags!

Our crazy flamingo clad crew!

Our tribe.

Happy Birthday Baby Girl!

Kamall Manhood Lake Trip 2018

One of our most anticipated trips of the year is to Mahood Lake, this year it looked like it wasn't going to happy, schedules weren't working out, but then at the very last minute everything lined up and we jumped on the opportunity!  This was our fourth year visiting the cabin and each year is SO GOOD!  The lake is huge and it feels like you are the only people in the world there, it's quiet, there is no cell reception, our weather was AMAZING, the company FANTASTIC, it was wonderful!!!

Here are some pictures of our time...

Until next year...
