OH MY CUTENESS!!!

OK seriously - LOVE these kids!!! How cute are these pictures? It's taking everything in me right now to stop myself from running to the store and printing a 5x7!! We had such a great day.

Leave it to Brooke and I to have such deep conversations outside while trimming bushes, raking mulch, pulling weeds, etc. What did Brooke call it?

Bush Trimming for the Soul - let your mind wander on that one :)

Seriously, it's just what we needed and I had a perfect day!!!

NOTE TO SELF ~ ALWAYS invite the Johnson's over when there's a house "to-do" list.

Makes the day WAY MORE productive :) Thanks again!!!

I swear I can hear those giggles just looking at this!!!

Poor Ziebers :( He just wants to chase the kids

A swear our friendship went to the next level today - and I didn't even know there was another level left!
(especially after Christmas lights :)

A little lunch picnic

I sweet is Ray Ray in this one?
Oh, I forgot to explain the reason for our lunch date today!
Kennedy was insisting on seeing Andrew last night, but I didn't get the texts til late. Sooo, I insisted on seeing them today :)
Great minds think alike Kennedy!

Last Hoorah

Back to being a working Mom this week! Looking at these pictures, I realize how much fun they have in little everyday things. I feel like I haven't even seen my babies this week except to read them a story and tuck them in, it was a whirlwind :( On the bright side, the kids did great with the transition back to work!!! Looking forward to catching up this weekend with some quality time and finishing up all our odds and ends around the house!! 

watching the kids on the tractor - she was a little shy that night

Barry gave a fun tractor ride for the kids

Still not too sure about the whole thing

Mom finally decided Andrew could go swimming in the pond
 (he looked so pitiful standing on the edge watching the girls)

Warming up by the fire

Took the kids to meet up with their cousins at Brookfield

Looking at all the Halloween costumes in the catalog

Enjoying the gorgeous weather at the park -  already miss our lunch dates :(

Gotta love her winks

We had a great summer!!!!

Happy Birthday Kennedy!

A Going Back To Work Tradition

I took the kids to Chuck E Cheese as part of our "living it up" last days before I go back to work. They LOVED it! We had so much fun running around from game to game and a few rides in between! After naps the kids had a great time playing with each other and their friend next door.

 Hard to believe it almost time to go back to school.

TICKETS!!!

Awww, CHUCK E

They were fighting over who got to dry off ZB after his bath
