Back to School Bash was awesome, as usual. 75 ice block and 9.5 dozen donuts this year. Love celebrating the end of summer with all our friends. This year Blake didn’t get his jobs done in time and I had to leave him home. But, I felt too sad that he was missing all the…
What? Is the world coming to an end? We hate camping! 🙂 Camping trip #1. GIRLS CAMP! I had the opportunity to cook again this year at Girls Camp. It is so fun to be up there with Halle. It’s also non-stop work from sun up to sun down! This year we had the girls…
Saturday June 17, 2017 was a perfect day. Blake told us in the car on the way to the church that he was, “really excited and a tiny bit nervous.” It was really sweet. My Mom, Nat, Leo and Simon came out on Wed and helped with baptism prep. Carlie, Gwen, Mave, Dad and Cole…
We left for Spain on Father’s Day morning. So, we quickly celebrated the night before. It’s not often that we get to spend Father’s Day with ALL the awesome father’s in our lives! What a fun treat! The kids worked so hard on these candy bar posters and were delighted to give them to their…
All my kids have had their baptism photos taken at the Old Mill Park in Longmont by yours truly. It’s such a beautiful spot and Blake was excited it was finally his turn. We had so much fun and Blake was a great model! I didn’t expect that 😉

Mother’s Day is simply the best. It’s just so sweet to get heartfelt gifts from the kids. I love it. Josh gave me homemade coasters and an adorable flower card. Blake wrote me a poem. Halle made me one of the most creative gifts I’ve ever received. Edible pussy willows! They are sticks with marshmallows…
I really wanted the photographer to shoot in 2 locations. But alas, I could not convince her to do so. But, that didn’t stop me from getting the pictures I wanted. I brought my DSLR and a stool to set up self timed shots. Well…..when we got there I discovered the DSLR battery was dead….
