Weekend Fun

We had such a fantastic weekend! First came Wendy's wedding shower....a wine tasting. Yummy...I may have to switch from my Bud Lime.....or not. My mom made a wonderful cake, Brigette selected some great wines for the tasting, and the weather was perfect. Thanks to all who helped pull it off, and thanks to everyone for coming and enjoying the day with Wendy.

Then after that Joe, the kids and I headed over to Lima for a graduation party. Congratulations Erika...it was a great party, sorry we couldn't stay too long. My day was exhausting. The kiddos had a good time playing on the cornhole games!!

Daddy My Hero....

Today Joe and Evan went golfing with Joe's dad and Ella and I headed over to my parents house to have lunch with my family.....hence no pictures of Evan or Joe! I LOVE my husband as a man and I LOVE my husband as a great dad. Two roles he knows how to handle like he's been doing it all his life. Happy Father's Day Babe...I Love You! The kids Love You! You are the best dad.




Lions & Tigers & Bears OH MY...

I took Evan to his first zoo ever this weekend. Evan and I headed up to Toledo to meet Beth and Brady to go to the Toledo Zoo. Evan had a great time. He was calling out all the animals he knew and learning about the ones he didn't recognize....and I think the Octopus was his favorite. At least in the beginning....he kept wanting to see the octopus! We even got to ride the train around the African Safari before we called it a day. He was exhausted.....asleep in the truck before we got back onto 75. He was very excited to get home and tell daddy and Ella about all the things he saw...including the monkey butt!! Check out the picture below.  ENJOY

Elling Photography

So I've finally added my Photography site to the blog. I have been developing it over the last few months.....but wanted to wait until there were some sessions on there before referring people to it. So everything that's on there has been on this site too. But today I am beginning to post all my photography sessions on there. So please visit the photography blog to see the wonderful session I just had tonight. Jadelyn and Angelo were a blast!! That's all I'm saying.....go......now!!

Frog Legs Anyone.....

We had quite an evening Saturday!! Joe's parents, Mark, Jac & Hadley, and Cyle, Bri & Cayden came over for supper and to hang out. Needless to say....lots of beer was consumed and once the kids all went to bed we did a little frog-giggin (if I even spelled that right...)!! Joe got one on his first stab....and Mark decided it looked easy enough. He was a 'ninja'...getting three on his first round. Hilarious to watch/listen to. You'll see in the picture below, it was very dark so we could only really hear what was going on. And Bri even got in on the fun getting a few herself, and even helping once they were on the gig....not my thing!! I give her all the credit in the world. Hope they were good guys!! :)

iMAC = AWESOME

Sorry for the lack in posts....our laptop died on us the other day and I've been without a computer for 4 days!!!  4 LONG days. We got a new iMAC and I have to admit I am loving it. I was terrified of the learning curve going from pc to mac....but it's completely worth it. The graphics on this baby are incredible....not to mention the 24" screen!! :)  Yes, it needs it's own room. And since we've been busy buying computers and getting vehicles fixed the following pictures will have to do for now. Haven't picked up the camera at all this week.....shame on me.
