ninja babies

I often think how crazy people will think we are when it is time to sell our house and they see the American Ninja Warrior course in our garage.  But mostly, I just enjoy watching my sweetheart play, and my babies get in on the action.



best cousins

My Sister-in-law took a bunch of adorable pictures of these sweet little BFs shortly after their second birthdays.  Even though these curly haired little ladies can get into all kids of mischief, it is fun to watch them feed off of each other. 



history, friends and legos

My friend Julie invited me and my crew to trek down to Cincinnati to see a lego display in one of the malls.  We had a great time seeing the amazing structures built entirely of legos.  It was great to teach the kids about why these monuments are significant.  I learned some cool tidbits as well.




We ended by building a few of our own creations and enjoying a picnic lunch.

The kids loved swim lessons once again!


cow appreciation day again

Free food, and a chance to dress up?  Yes, please!


 And Chad supports me, even though he his dignity is not worth free Chick Fil' A.






hoa pond


We had a great time fishing in the HOA pond.  They stock it every year, but very few people utilize it.  It was the middle of the day and we thought it was futile to even try, but the kids wanted to give it a go.  Turns out, with both Chad and I working as fast as we could, we could barely keep up with taking fish off the line.  The fish were biting so well we even stopped baiting the hooks and they were still just reeling them in one after another.

may is 2!

Mays birthday was pretty much just awesome! Not only did she turn two, but she got to celebrate twice!  Round one was shared with Kamry.  When you are only four days apart from your cousin/best friend, how can you not!   



These two little two year old girls were so happy to get a turn to blow out candles!  They were also pretty happy that since they were the birthday girls they didn't get in trouble when they sniched the frosting!
It is not every day that we have Grandma Alice at our house to help us celebrate a birthday!  So for round two, we thought we would do something just for May.  She helped make her cake pop cake, opened presents, and got to blow out candles again!


This little girl brings a spark of magic to our home that we just couldn't do without!  We love our May Sue!
