Caroline's Two Year Pictures

I took Caroline to get her pictures done today. The girl took over 100 pictures. It was quite an ordeal narrowing it down! :) She did a great job with only one minor crying spell at the beginning. Here are just a few of the pictures!

Caroline's 2nd Birthday

Today Caroline turned two. Wow-time has flown! We had our families over for a little Mexican fiesta and then enjoyed some fun cupcakes and ice cream. It was a great day and I feel so blessed to have had everyone here together to celebrate my sweet little girl!

Beach Bear Cupcakes

All of the kids-including Jessica! :)

Enjoying the cupcake he got to decorate.

Zoo School

Today Brandi invited Drew and me to the zoo for a zoo class for Drew. He learned all about desert dwellers! Nikki and her boys were there too! We walked around the zoo to look at some animals and then we returned to the education buidling to pet a couple of animals and do a craft. It was such a fun time! After the class we walked around the zoo for an hour. Fun times with fun friends!

Karli's Baptism

Today we celebrated sweet Karli's baptism. She did such a great job--not a cry out of her when the pastor took her or sprinkled water on her. It was so great to have our family and Jessica's family all together. (Craig was out of town visiting the ole Miami gang).

Spending Time with Friends

We decided to have a cookout for the fourth with the neighbors. We are always looking for an excuse to get together and have "adult time" and let the kids play all together. Here are a few pictures of the kiddos. Thanks Brandi, again, for having your camera! :)

We Art Still Here!

Okay, okay, I got a little behind on the blog. The end of the school year makes me crazy, then we had VBS, and then family was in town. I will be updating the last month and a half this weekend! I am sure there will be pages of updates-we have been busy!!! I know you have all been dying to know what we have been up to :) But for now, the camera battery is recharging!

A Day at the Farm

Brandi and I took the kids up to visit Bergefurd's Farm. We get our weekly CSA share from them and thought it would be fun to take the kids to see where we get our food. Brandi and I found it very exciting and informational. Maddie and Sophia really loved the animals. My kids were crabby and Caroline was afraid of every animals. "I scared" was all she could say. My two were also very uncooperative when we tried a group shot. Once again, Brandi did a great slideshow of our afternoon and I got a few pictures too (ran out of camera storage)!
