Danielle & Daniel's Wedding

We celebrated my cousin's wedding this past weekend.


It was also Father's Day weekend and somehow all the dads ended up at a table with all the kids.  It was perfect!  (Side note - they served breakfast and it was an awesome idea...the kids ate so well and it was yummy!)


We took the opportunity of being together and dressed up to snap some photos.

Moo-vie Night

Hildebrand Farms Dairy hosted a Moo-vie night.



Grandma and Grandpa were in town (helping with some dirt work to prevent the basement from flooding again) and joined us.

We enjoyed ice cream and popcorn before the movie started.





Surprisingly, both kids made it through all of Charlotte's Web.  It was a newer version of the movie that none of us had ever seen.  We were beat by the time we got home, but it was a fun evening.


New Beds

Even though we just recently moved Paisley into her toddler bed, we decided to go ahead and move her into a big girl bed.  

(Long story - I bought a new bed for Ollie from Kerby and it had been hanging out in the basement.  Our basement flooded majorly, like we had to rip out carpet and some sheetrock... totally mess.  Anyway, the bed was in the way as we were trying to put the basement back together so I decided to just swap beds around now since a crib is smaller and easier to store than a double bed.)

So Paisley got Ollie's old twin bed...
...and Ollie got a double bed!

Paisley does have a guardrail on her bed and can get in by herself.  She is, however, too scared to get out of bed, which is a parent win because she stays in her bed.

Ollie loves his extra room, but he did have a bad reaction to his new sheets because his terrible mother didn't wash them before putting them on his bed.  He broke out in a rash all over his arms and face.  Oops.  Parent fail.

Annual Anniversary Photo - Year Six

An anniversary is a time to celebrate the joys of today, the memories of yesterday, and the hopes of tomorrow.

We Love Babies

Paisley is completely infatuated with babies and who can blame her.  We got lots of baby time in this past week with the arrival of Krista's daughter, Maggie.



We also got to see baby Axel.  Paisley calls him "Axel Man" since Papa calls him Ax Man.  Pais will see a baby in the grocery store, on tv, on Facebook, or anywhere really, and will start yelling that it is Axel.

Fun Day

Fun Day is Riley County's version of a field day.  Ollie's first field day was full of fun and smiles!




Grandma, Grandpa, Grammy, and Paisley (in the background) were able to come watch Ollie.



Ollie got to eat school lunch on his birthday and for fun day today.  Definitely the highlight of his day.

Mother's Day

Motherhood is messy.

And challenging.

And chaotic.

And sleepless.

And still unbelievably beautiful.


My sister and I have a wonderful example of how to be a great mom.



My crew.
