California

Last weekend we were able to take a quick trip to California to visit Alex's Sister who is there for the summer. The kids has so much fun on the beach as these pictures show!!

They loved to play in the water, especially Owen who didn't want Alex to hang on to him at all, he wanted to do it by himself, but he kept falling over. It was so funny to watch him play in the water. They also loved to play in the sand!!

We packed a lunch and taught our kids why they are really called sandwiches!! Abby didn't like it so much and didn't eat any of her sandwich, but she did drink like 5 capri-suns.

We had such a great time and the weather was awesome! I forgot how sandy everything gets at the beach and our car now looks like the beach. We are still finding sand in the most interesting places on the kids!! We might have to make it a yearly trip.

New Pictures

I wanted to get some pictures taken of the kids for Alex for fathers day. My friend Shauna came through again and took some amazing pictures. We also had all of the cousins on my side in town so we tried to get some pics of all of them. We went at 7 in the morning and it was still so hot and muggy outside. Poor Abby looks like she is about to pass out in some of the pics. It was a fun morning!

This is the best shot we got with all the kids. Owen kept trying to crawl away.


These are my sisters new twins. They are so stinking cute!! I love this picture.

This a collage that my friend put together for me to give to Alex. He loves it!
