Addison is what ....???? SEVEN!

Addison wanted a puppy themed party (ever since we got Charlie of course) and so 

Charlie got to make a star appearance at the party! 

The fire hydrant pinata - I had to explain why we this fit with the theme to the girls when we made it! 

Somehow our funny pose one is always better than the serious one! 

4K and 1st grade!!!

                         Day one of Ella's 4K and Addison's first grade were both a success!

A Magical Night

The girls dream came true tonight...it was a special treat for Ella's birthday. A playdate with ponies that included tea, feeding them, reading a story with them, riding them and putting them to bed!

"Mom-I'm SO proud of me!"

Best quote of the week from Ella after she learned how to ride her bike by herself!

We are proud of her indeed...it helped encourage her to try riding by telling Ella that her older sister learned before her 5th birthday.  I guess a little healthy competition never hurt anyone...she had a week to spare before she turned 5!

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! 

Summer is Here!

Claudia's 13th birthday and Lauren's 3rd Birthday Celebration

Someone turned 3!

Mickey and Minnie helped Lauren and her family celebrate her 3rd birthday. Her favorite part in her words were, "Everybody singing to me!"
