Fathers Day

We spent the day celebrating with my Dad and sister and her family in Door County. It was a fun day at Pennisula State Beach Park. We went kayaking and I was proud of my Mom (who doesn't like water activities) but went kayaking. Charlie had fun at the campground too...I should have taken a photo of him...he was one dirty dog!  It was a fun day!


All the Dads! 

Lauren enjoyed her ride so much she ended up falling asleep on the way back

She did it!


Our silly photo because the other one wasn't looking any better than this one!

Strawberry picking from earlier in the week...had to share this one too!

Meet Charlie!!!



We welcomed a new addition to our family, Charlie! An 8 week old cavachon who is just perfect in every way. Loves to cuddle, cuddle and play and then cuddle some more! The girls can't get enough of him and are already fighting, "It's my turn to hold him now!" Larry is excited to have his boy in the house!





This is my friend/co-workers daughter and their dog (Charlie's half brother) Milo

Elsa in Paris...?

Another dance season is in the books. They really seemed to have fun this year and enjoyed meeting new friends along the way. This year Ella looked at the audience and (smiled sometimes) did a great job as well as Addison. Ella was in a ballet routine and Addison was in jazz.

Meet our newest family member....

It's our new BOY! A little Cavachon puppy (Part Kind Charles Spaniel and part Bichon) who will be joining our family in early June! The girls have asked for a puppy since we said goodbye to Bailey last year. They were surprised tonight when we put a blue balloon around a stuffed animal dogs neck on a doggie bed and announced we were getting a puppy. They have lots of name suggestions and ideas on how they are going to train him. We'll be busy this summer but it will sure be a fun addition!


What? A Puppy!!!!

Seeing a photo of him!
A photo of him and his brothers - he is the second from right

Look at that smile!

The blue candy made this staged photo really funny!!!

Lauren and Addison checking out more photos!

SO sleepy-15 days old


Bam Bam - the Dad!
Sophie - the Mom...sure reminds of us of our Bailey

Spring Break 2015



We took a 18 hour road trip to Gulf Shores, AL over Spring Break. We rented a condo with our friends and their girls. We all had a blast....Too many to write about so forgive me for posting a crazy amount of photos.









A quick cat nap for Lauren at dinner when you don't have a 2 year old nap
at all for a week and go to bed 2 hours after their bedtime:)

This was when she finally crashed at 11:00! It was vacation for everyone...anything goes!

Our last morning before we left...sad:(

Our great driver!


Dolphin Cruise



Her face says it all-she was supposed to PRETEND to steer the boat-she really did! OHHH BOY!



Fun at the Zoo


The girls favorite thing to do...play in the big waves! 



She played in the sand that so much sand accumulated in her bottoms and they weren't staying up so good! 


The whole gang buried on the beach

This was on the way there...awesome little travelers! 

Party horns were blowing when we made it to Gulf Shores!!!!
