Happy Trails

Tonight after dinner we decided to explore a new trail close to our home. The girls LOVED it!
...Ava & Jane...
...Jane sporting her shades...
...Jane decided to push her own stroller...I don't know why we bothered to take it!
...we found water...
...very COLD water...
...and a swinging rope...
...of course Scott had to take a swing too...
...love this one...
...and this one...
...heading home...
...Popcicles for a treat...Ava ate hers before I could get a picture...
Jane was very serious about hers. It's her second one and I think she is a fan!
Welcome Summer! We Love YOU!

Hello Summer...

Hello Sprinkler and Popcicles! We Sure Have Missed You!

Happy Mother's Day

After Jane's dedication, everyone came back to our house for lunch...
...all of the Moms...
Lorena, Florence, Carol, me, and Kristin
...the whole crew...
...yummy ice cream cake...
...fun party favors...


Happy Happy Mother's Day to all of the Mamas in my life!
You are loved!

Jane's Dedication

We dedicated Jane this morning at church. It was very special because our entire family (17 in all) were able to join us. Since we have the lucky last name that starts with an "A"...we got to go up first and wait for the 13 others to be introduced. Fortunately, the girls did great ...(besides a little nose-picking) and weren't too wiggly.
....Here we are...
...Mum, Papa, and the Boys...
...waiting before the service to begin...
Jane's slide...so fitting with birds for our little Janie Bird!

Love From Texas

Will and Creighton came all the way from Texas this weekend...along with Mum, Papa, Sissy, and Craig. We had a fun and busy weekend celebrating Jane's dedication and Mother's Day!
...the big cousins...
...I can't resist these blue eyes and toothy smile...
...the baby cousins...soooo sweet.
