 And my personal favorites...
Going...

My Little Ballerina

This girl has been taking a dance class and LOVES it.
I will admit, I was a bit teary - eyed getting her ready, dropping her off, and watching her dance (right in her element). Nothing brings me more joy than seeing my girls happy.

Visiting Home

A few weeks ago, we ventured back to heaven. Some people call it North Idaho.
We spent the first few days catching up with Nathan's family. 

Our whole Saturday was spent at this awesome cabin! It has an adorable creek, plenty of land, and unlimited places to explore.
 Nathan, James, and Shae went out for a long four-wheeler ride. Unfortunately, it was raining...
 They came back soaking wet. Shae was not too happy about this.
 We all warmed up and played games by the cozy fireplace.
 Nathan and James cooked up some delicious chicken.
 Annie and Shae wanted to roast marshmallows, so we improvised.
 Nathan was really enjoying that chicken... Photobomb - James!
 This is the cabin... round house... whatever you want to call it. It was so unique and different. I've never quite been inside something like it.
 On Sunday Everett (Katie's new baby) was blessed. Sadly, nobody took pictures that day.

The next week Nathan left to head back to work while the girls and I stayed with my parents.
The girls took full advantage of the ultimate backyard. They spent most of their day outside splashing in their princess pool, boating, running through the sprinklers, engaging in water fights, and playing to their hearts' content.
That's pure joy, right there.
 Tough as nails.
We spent our 4th of July on the boat then partying at home.
 Zip line in action!

These last few pictures were taken on my phone that week...

Sparklers! Happy 4th! Side note: Shae burned her foot shortly after this. Oops!
 Shae decided to climb into the grocery cart. I guess she underestimated how chunky her thighs were. It took a few minutes for me and grandma to get her out.
 We went to Monsters University! It was hilarious. Annie LOVED it.
Trampoline + Hose = perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day.
 Tubing with Grandpa!
We had a great trip! 
Until next time...

We love our daddy!

We brought him breakfast in bed.
The girls drew a few pictures for him.
I made him an extra special lunch.
He is relaxing now. 
Tonight we will be at Carol Ann's and Rod's house for dinner.
We love spoiling our daddy - he deserves every bit of it!

Surprise!

My heart is full today.
This afternoon we were able to see and hear the newest member of our family.
I am due January 6th.
This baby was dancing through most of the ultrasound... cutest thing.
We are ecstatic!
