Amazing Azure

This little cutie pie just turned 4. Our baby is 4! What is going on here?! We partied with friends at Monkey Joe's, then returned home for cake, ice cream, and presents. It was a fantastic way to  celebrate the birth of this little lady. Azure is funny and sweet, with just a hint of teasing in her. We love her so very much and are grateful she is part of our forever family. Happy 4th Azure blue!

Memorial Day '15

Memorial Day was wonderful. Thatcher had the awesome opportunity to pass out programs, then escort a wreath down the isle for a ceremony in honor of our nations fallen heroes. The presentation only lasted an hour, but made a huge impact on our boy. He asked me tons of questions on the way home and now has a new understanding of what this special holiday means. To finish out the day we were able to swim with one of our favorite families around. The kiddos had a fantastic evening swimming with their friends and catching frogs. I'd say this was one of our most successful Memorial Day's yet!

Grandma's Visit

Grandma Darden came to visit a few weeks ago and we had a great time. She entertained the kiddos nonstop and was very helpful to me as we maneuver these weeks with Daddy away. Countless Old Maid games, a few lemonade stands, a night out to Red Robin and the two weeks had already flown by. The kiddos were sad to see her leave, but happy when reminded she would see them again in Sept.!
