Growing Up!!

So I took the kids this evening for some pictures....Evan's three year pictures and Ella's 18 month pictures! I decided last year after a picture session here that this will be the place where I come back to for their 'scale' picture. So after dinner this evening we ran up the road for a brief session. So hopefully I'll find another location soon and get some more pictures done.

Random Picts.

Some random pictures from this weekend. The kids decided it would be fun to 'play fort' with the sheets I had hanging over the drying rack in the closet. It was pretty cute. On Sat. we headed up to Wendy & Frank's lake house. Thanks for having us up guys. We had lots of fun and the kids enjoyed playing in the water. Ella couldn't quite decide which game she wanted to play, so she just went for all the games at once!! Enjoy...

One Year Old Tubing!!!???

We had lots of fun this weekend. We headed up to Doug & Jess's lake place in Michigan and the kids Loved it. They had lots of fun on the boat and playing with their cousins all weekend. We got to watch the fireworks on the boat Friday night, and made it home Saturday night to sit on our porch and watch Van Wert's fireworks!! Sort of a tradition for Joe and I now.

Doug was determined to take Joe and Evan tubing....so we went out Saturday and Joe went first. Needless to say....Doug needs a faster boat!! It wasn't quite as easy as Doug thought for Joe to give up.  :) Evan was completely uninterested in the whole thing....but Ella...Fearless!! She was loving it. Even giving Doug the thumbsup meaning go faster. We're really in for it when she get bigger. Thanks for having us up guys. It was lots of fun.

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.
