Happy 2nd Birthday Jaylynn!

Happy 2nd Birthday to a funny, smart, beautiful, sweet, adorable little girl who has no idea whatsoever she is actually only 2. You light up our lives every single day and we are so blessed and grateful for you to be apart of our family.

A little unsure of the fire, hanging onto her best friend, Daddy

Happy Birthday Jaylynn Grace! You are a true gift from God.

Those Eyes

This little face with those eyes gets us every single time.

Is she not one of the most adorable kids you have ever seen?

How do you say no to this?

I can't believe....

I can't believe I let the blog go. I feel horrible. I want my children to be able to look back and see all the great things we did or the funny things we said. I guess I'll do a recap by month and do a new post for each. Nothing too grand or exciting has happened (a few graduations) but I still want to share pictures. That's my plan for the next week ~ to do a monthly update each day and then start getting better about blogging. Someone, anyone, hold me accountable please! PLEASE!

Sugarload Mountain

We visited Sugarloaf Mountain today. I wasn't sure how the kids would handle hiking up that mountain but they did great. Really great. I carried Jay up most of the way (and the way down ~ which was pretty cool to hear a few rock climbers comment to one another "that mom is a rock star carrying her kid up"). It was really pretty when we got to the top and the kids loved the view. James stayed back some, like me; we don't do well with heights. Jacob, on the other hand, probably would have scaled back down if we had let him. He got dangerously close to the edge, scaring me half to death, along with some other hikers.

James' 5th Grade Graduation

I can't believe James is graduating 5th grade. When did this happen? Middle school already? He is really excited for it and I think he'll do great.

James, we are so proud of you. You are an amazing, smart, funny and kind boy. We are blessed to have you as a son.

End of the Year Music Concert

Jasmine and James had their musical concert tonight. James was singing with the 5th grade chorus and Jasmine played flute. They both did great and the concert was really nice. Ya know, as nice as an elementary school concert can be. ;-)

Jenna's Preschool Graduation

How this year has flown! Jenna graduated preschool today. She had such an amazing year. She truly blossomed.
