Catching up. Slowly.

Things have been SO busy around here that I am so behind on sharing pictures of the kids. So this post will hopefully be my catch up on just some of the snap shots of my sweet buttercups.  More to come. Haven't even dumped most of June's pictures off the camera yet.

Enjoying the weather and eating outside.





















Sporting Bethe8!




























Lots of playing in the water.

Turning 30 and getting away.

The girls in my connection group got away to Des Moines for an overnight. We used my 30th birthday as our excuse.





















































































We have a 2nd grader???!!!

We now have a 2nd grader. Time is going too fast.

First day of 1st grade.
























Last day of 1st grade. I actually think he looks older in the first picture. Maybe it's his pose in the first picture making him look older or the dorky white socks in this picture making him look younger. I don't know.
























Some rare snuggles with Payton. See how tall he's getting?!
























I love these munchkins so much!

10 years!

Today I have been married to my Love for 10 years! I can't believe it has been 10 years already! We have had a lot going on in these 10 years of marriage. Many ups and downs that have caused us to grow closer and closer. I praise the Lord today for bringing us this far and I pray that as the years continue that Jason and I can use our marriage and our family for the glory of God.

What a crazy, beautiful ride it has been babe! I love you so much! Happy 10th Anniversary!

A spot to sleep.

Dear Son,
Your Grandpa and Grandma gave us a few mattresses. One was for your brother who needed a new one. THE OTHER ONE IS WAITING FOR YOU. I can't wait to kiss both of you goodnight. Someday.
In the meantime, on these rainy days, your mattress has become a trampoline.
Love you little man,
Momma






















Thank you Gpa and Gma for your many gifts and LOTS of support! Can't wait to see you with ALL of your grandkids!
