Here are my pitiful attempts at photoshop. Photoshop is amazing. Thanks Mindy for the great book! It's fun to just click things and see what happens, but then I can't remember what I did. I think I may need to start writing things down if I am going to continue with random clicking. lol. I can't believe my kids they are getting so big. It seems as though I can't stop saying that. More photos to come!

It doesn't get any better than this.







































































Nothing spells summer like camping. We have spent so many days out in Elkwater over the last couple of years. Since we were able to get a trailer a couple of years ago we have loved every minute. It is even more fun when we go with our friends the Halladays. The kids love to run around, ride bikes, play at the beach and just do whatever. Looking back at these photos make me smile, I especially love Orin in the cold water we had to bribe him with ice cream just to get him that far! And then there's Ami, it doesn't get any better than her. Love it!







More Oldies









I just love going through and finding these awesome pictures. I love looking at how we have all grown over the years. The kids are getting so big and I just treasure every moment with them.

A Tribute To My Sister


I have the most amazing sister in the whole wide world. Her name is Nicole and as far as I'm concerned, she is the best person on the planet.

Without her I, and my blog, would cease to exist.

Her beauty and wisdom is surpassed by none.

I shall grovel on the ground before her and sing her praises until the day I die.

Done with Busy Bees
















Well, it's official! Busy bees is finally over and I have one happy little girl. Ami and I have been ready for busy bees to be over all year. She has been so ready and is so eager to move on. Every morning I hear the same thing Mommmm I don't want to go to busy bees, and When is it going to be kindergarten...tomorrow? Don't get me wrong Ami loved busy bees when she got there. It was the getting there that was the problem. You see Ami is the only one out of my three kids that sleeps in. We had to come up with some pretty crazy tactics to get Ami out of bed. To name a few, tickles, stories, annoying brothers turning the lights on and off, mother yelling, etc. HaHa.. good times had by all, especially Mom. All laughing aside as I drove to busy bees this morning for the last time I had this sudden feeling of sadness, no more babies no more preschool all done. Boohoohoo...but only for a moment. That's all I have time for these days..


Ami I am so proud of you. You will always be my little sunshine.



P.S Watch out kindergarten cause here she comes!
