Gum, Anyone?

Double Trouble...

There will be a lock on our next pantry.. I tell Charlotte to get down b/c I wasn't sure it could hold both of their weights :)

Chicken Biscuit!

Charlotte saying her latest joke! AWESOME!!

Hot and Adorable!

Usually I'm talking about Josh when I use those two words together, but this time I'm referring to the weather and the kids.  We had to run a bunch of errands one day, and they did so great out and about that I got them some ice cream.  This was a little bench time outside the ice cream shop afterwards.

Sweet Friends!!

Our sweet neighbors came to visit us!! We felt so loved on~they drove almost 4 hours to hang out at the pool on Monday, and the kids had a blast!  Trent and Charlotte were the magic secret to encouraging each other to swim independently! It was awesome!  Plus, Liam got some time with his future wife, Brooklyn! (that is, if handsome Mr. Carter there in the middle doesn't put in a bid first, lol!  I might put my money on Carter with those curls!)  What a bunch of sweeties!!  Not pictured are their moms, who I miss SOOO much!! :/

Concentration...

she is working on a colorwonders marker masterpiece in this picture...love that girl!

T Ball!!

So this weekend, we all headed out to ol'WallyWorld to get a "starter kit" of T Ball equipment... the cutest bat ever (well, the pink was was actually cuter but Josh wisely insisted we go as neutral as possible on the bat), a pink and white glove that is still a little big (we would have gotten the Boy one as well, but the tiniest glove they had was still ridiculously big on him), a pack of soft T balls, and a flimsy-but-the-only-one-they-had T ball stand. Oh my goodness they were precious!! And, even though they certainly aren't ready to join a team, they both displayed some natural coordination that was comforting to see :) We are both so proud of them! Josh also impressed me with his future T ball coaching skillz! He was so patient with them and they did just great :) Since most of my time was spent keeping the kid not with Josh from getting beaned in the head, there were not many photo ops, but here is a nice action shot of Charlotte! Looking forward to innumerable ball games to come!

6 Years!!

Six years ago, tonight, I married the love of my life.  It has been such an incredible blessing, this marriage.  Josh is an amazing man, and I love him so much!! Happy Anniversary, Sweetie!  Looking forward to what the next six (times ten) years hold for us!!
