Andrea's 2nd Birthday

Andrea opening all her gifts (took a lot longer than we were expecting).





The "Cars" DVD (She took her lightning Mc Queen to VBS today.)and new puzzle took the prize for favorite gifts (honorable mention to all the rest).





Next year we're just getting her gift bags. She was more excited about all her new purses than the gifts we hid inside them.



Birthday heaven (She didn't realize she would have to share the cake). The past two days she's been singing, "Happy Dinner to you!" while walking around the room with a crayon propped in a pencil sharpener.

Father's Day with Papa and the Dads

Aunt Gina made some "ummy" pork. I did help stir the gravy so I feel like I contributed a little. (lol) Actually we all did bring our special side and we had a grand feast. For father's day, papa got some funny cards, a hiking stick (not firewood...haha), a picture keychain, and some sweaty cold cash (a sweatband that we hid in the freezer) so he can buy a new bike for father's day. See below...

Annie's Birthday Party

Annie's birthday party is Saturday, June 20th from 4-6p.m.
If you are thinking about what to get her. Here are some ideas or if you have something in mind that is fine too. You could even leave a comment if you got something that way someone else would not get it kind of like a registry. Maybe it's random to do this but these are things that I know that she needs or would like.

Birthday Wishlist
Disney's CARS DVD
Anything airplanes or especially helicoptors
sun dresses
CD player for her room
Little Einsteins DVD
Shoes-size 7 (She is in 6's now but seems to be growing fast.)

See y'all on Saturday!

Summer Time

I love summer time because it gives our family time to relax together. I feel like so many memories are made. Monday night we went for a walk with the double stroller and then stopped by the Lammers house to have key lime pie. Tuesday night we went to an outdoor concert on the lawn of Appleby Library with our friend Andrea Mc. (I'll specify since there are so many amazing Andreas in our lives.) Last night we went swimming with the Abers! Andrea got in the water and played in the kiddie pool with Gabbie! Hooray! We're making progress! Charles and Andrea both loved the "Big Bath!" I am looking forward to lots more summer evenings with my kids and wonderful husband. It's been four years today that he married me and I am loving every minute of it.

An Evening of Dancing

This was our after dinner entertainment last night.

She Says the cutest Things!

The other day John and I watched the last Indiana Jones movie. Andrea was just walking around the room playing. The movie was at the scene where the nuns are taking care of the insane asylum. Andrea looks up and says, "HEY LOOK MARYS!"
