A Few More...

Our baby girl had her first day of preschool this week...what a big girl!! She did great, until about 11:00 (with 30 minutes left of preschool)- she then started asking for Mommy. Our sweet baby girl....

On our way home from Mimi & Papa's- Eli put his shades on and he was zonked.

A quick picture with Mimi & Papa before we hit the road!

Our niece Karson Kay...don't get to see enough of her! So glad she came over to Mom and Dad's when we were there!

Play Mates

Trinity and Eli have become great playmates over the summer (oh, don't get me wrong...they still have moments of fighting!)...it's been so fun to see them grow and play together!

They helped clean their bathtoys and splished, splashed, and giggled all over!

Swimming together at Mimi & Papa's.

Bucket heads together

Daddy was ever so compliant to be their horsey!

Mimi & Papa Time!

We've blessed to see Mimi & Papa a lot this month- it's been so wonderful!!

We went and picked corn while they were here!

Such a cute picture...Trinity & Papa saying good-bye after a weekend at their house!

Mimi was in charge of nap time...I think she enjoyed it as much as the kids!


Eli's best friend- Papa!

Joyful July

Two teachers had 'big' birthdays within a couple weeks of each other...Tracy turned 40 and Linsey turned 30. Several teachers got together and 'kidnapped' them and took them to dinner to celebrate...it was such a wonderful evening!!

Fair Time! We all had such fun at the fair!

Trip to Omaha

We took a trip to Manhattan to see my brother Justin and his wife, Amber. We then headed north to Omaha to visit our nephew Beau and his wife, Kari. We went to the zoo and had a great time visiting with everyone!!

Summer Fun

A quick trip to the Garden City Zoo with a niece, a nephew, and a family friend! It was fun...and hot! We had to get Sonic on the way home!

Trinity's first year of swimming lessons...she did so good!! She's now a little fish in the water!

Always need a little help from Grandpa!! He's the best at shooting Nerf guns!

Who can resist this face?

3/4 of Ya-Ya

Three of the four of our Ya-Ya group were able to get together to meet the newest 2nd generation member- Easton Wade! My friend, Leah, had her 2nd son on July 1st and he's absolutely adorable!!

Trinity and Leah's oldest son, Braxton...it really is a hug...or maybe more of a neck-hold!

We missed Sarah being there!! Leah, Belinda, and me...oh, what a wonderful weekend...although way too short! How I miss these girls!
