Water Table

This past weekend Jay brought out the water table for the kids. Addy was excited to play with it and when Austen saw it he thought it was the coolest thing ever especially because he loves to splash water. The water table was a gift that Addy got for her birthday last year from Grandma. I can tell they will be getting a lot of use out of it this summer. Here are some cute pictures I took, by the end Austen was soaked from head to toe!

Tiger Cub Graduation 2011

Today was Addy's Graduation from Preschool. She was so excited to see that Grandpa, Uncle B and Sarah also went. She was so concerned too that Austen was there, she was afraid we wouldn't bring him. It was so cute! Here are some great pictures I got from her graduation. She was given the award of "Most Talkative" in the class. I think I was given that same award when I went to school at CLC. She really has gotten so big. We are so proud of her!!!

The Secret Garden

Addy was invited to Mya's 6th birthday party at a place called The Secret Garden. I didn't get to go since I had to work, but Addy had an amazing time. They let the kids dress up in all sorts of dress up clothes, they did their nails and got to put some makeup on. There was a little tea party with some snacks and cupcakes. She was so excited to come home and tell us all about it. Here are some pictures my friend Arlyn sent me from the party. Enjoy!

Playdate with Evan and Brandon

We went over to my friend Megan's house this morning and the kids had so much fun playing outside. Here are some pictures I got from the fun morning.

Mom's Birthday Fun

We went over to my parents to celebrate her birthday yesterday and had a nice dinner. Addy loved helping Auntie Em bring out the birthday pie for Nonna. Here are some cute pictures that I got from the fun night!

Outside Fun!

Happy Birthday Mom!!

We want to wish my mom a VERY Happy Birthday! I am so lucky to have such an amazing mom who is always there whenever I need her and always thinks of others before herself. Today on her birthday, is her day to get spoiled and enjoy the day! One of my favorite things is seeing her with my kids. The day she became a Nonna, was one of the happiest days of both our lives. Love you mom! Happy Birthday!!!

Mother's Day Weekend

This past weekend we had a great weekend going to the Zoo for the first time for this year. The kids were really excited when we got there. We waited till we got there to tell Addy. We met our friends Jonna, Shad and their kids Evie and Nolan. It was fun to be out and the weather was perfect. Here are some pictures from our weekend!

Happy Mother's Day!!! It is the best job!

Congrats to my brother Bryan on his graduation from Iowa State!

Beautiful Weather
