Kaylee turned 9

Kaylee had a birthday and turned 9 years old. I can not believe it! Where has the time gone? She is such a great oldest child, both of her little sisters look up to her and love her so much, so do I. She is so sweet and helpful (as long as she gets her sleep). I don't know what I would do without her. Love you Kaylee! I hope you have a great year.

10 years

On September 15th Casey and I celebrated our ten year anniversary. It is so crazy to look back and think how my life was just 10 years ago.When I look back before I was married, I think how I was missing out on so much. Now my life is so full because, I get to be a mom to three beautiful girls, and I wake up next to by best friend every morning! I am so blessed!

Ashlyn turns 6

On September 2nd Ashlyn turned 6 years old. I love so many things about her, but my favorite thing is that she makes me smile every single day! Happy Birthday!

First day of school

This year Kaylee is in 3rd grade. Her teacher is Mrs. Anderson. I can't believe that my little girl is that old. I am so excited for the new things she will learn.

Ashlyn is so ready to start Kindergarten. This year her teacher is Mrs. Christensen. I think she has been counting down the minutes for at least a whole year! When I took her to class today she wouldn't even slow down and wait for me. Nope she just ran down the hall without even a glance back at her mom.

End of Summer 2011

     We have had such a fun summer. But with school starting I know that the Fall is just around the corner. So on Monday night my Boss took us out on the lake. In his boat. We had the best time just enjoying the perfect weather, we cooked  dinner and caught a bunch of fish!
                                   

It was such a BEAUTIFUL day!

Fabulous Forth

Our family loves the 4th of July, it is definitely one of my favorite days of the whole year! This year I made my family start the day off with a little bike ride.



Oh and I made my dad trail behind us in case the little ones got tired. (Thanks Dad)

We just rode into town to my mom's house where she had made breakfast.

After breakfast we went to Mt. Pleasant for a small town parade!

I think most of us had a fabulous time. After the parade was over we went to Casey's moms house for some lunch. We just enjoyed a lazy afternoon visiting with family.

Then it was time for sparklers!

After sparklers and some street fireworks we went to the High School to finish our fabulous fourth with a big BANG! God bless America! Home of the Free, because of the Brave! Thanks to all of the men and women who serve our Country.



Fishing Fun

The other day while I was at work Casey took all three girls fishing. They all had such a fun trip. Reagan caught the biggest fish. It was the only one they ended up keeping. Ironically he didn't get a picture of her.

Picnic

A few weeks ago we thought it would be fun to go on a little picnic, we found a great little spot and sat down to some sandwiches, chips, grapes, olives, and some strawberry short cake for dessert. We had such a fun time. Aren't lazy afternoons with your family the best?

Ashlyn Graduates

 In May Ashlyn had her last day of Pre-school.This is her at her graduation ceremony.



This is her teacher Mrs. Madsen, She was a really fun teacher.



  Ashlyn also had her best buddy Sarah in class with her.

Ashlyn had a great year at Pre-school. I am so happy that Ashlyp finds joy in learning, I hope that it will always be that way. 

Snow or Sand

As much fun as we have been having in all this snow.

We left it behind for this-

This is Daytona Beach Florida. We had the best time strolling the beach and finding shells. We had a balcony overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, it was beautiful.
