We're Off

All settled in for our 19 hour drive to WA. Hooray for movies in the car.

Ava turns 4

Ava's birthday landed on a Sunday this year so we were able to celebrate all weekend long. We started off Saturday by making her cake. She wanted chocolate with chocolate chip sprinkles.


Next we headed off to Jumping Jacks.



Then off to Samuari 21 for some delicious food.


Then back to our house for cake and presents.


The next morning, on her actual birthday, she had her special 4 pancake breakfast.

Love you so much Ava Nicole. You are the sweetest sour patch kid ever.

Happy 4th

I was feeling very patriotic Sunday morning as we were getting ready for church. All my kiddos in their red, white, and blues. Such a fun bunch I've been blessed with. I thought to snap a picture on our way home and right when I was working on getting it focused, Owen gets up and walks away. Story of my life.

I'm usually opposed to projecting fireman anything onto Owen simply because he is our only boy...however, these boots from Grandma Preslan were just too cute and I had to snap of few of him in them.
