Last week we went back to Owatonna, MN to visit nanny and papa and we had so much fun! We went fishing, swimming, and to the county fair several days. The kids loved it and we made many great memories:)

Rock Star Party
Belle's birthday is tomorrow and we had her party Saturday. She had so much fun with her cousins and best friend Brooklyn:) Daddy set up real microphones and played lots of fun "rock" music.
I can't believe she is about to be 4!

Spider Web Cockadillier
Belle has a pretty wild imagination and she is great at story-telling (thanks to her daddy). Last night before bed she sat down with Blake and started showing him different animals on her little play computer. After showing him a few "normal" animals she said:
Belle - "Daddy, now I am going to show you an animal you have NEVER seen before... it starts with the letter 'O' "
* Random typing *
Belle - "Ok here it is, its the Spider Wed Cockadillier (I guess thats how its spelled... although I missed the "O" I think)."
Daddy - "Wow, that's pretty neat."
Belle - "Yeah, let me look up more about it on my computer."
* More random typing *
Belle - "Oh, it eats PLASTIC SPARKLES."
Daddy - *GASP* "No way, thats awesome"
Belle - "Yes, and it drinks water with plastic sparkles in it!"
The conversation went on from there with more elaborate details about this mystical creature. I thought it was especially funny because Belle thinks that plastic is the best thing ever. She broke her glass teaset last year and ever since then she has insisted that she needs a PLASTIC teaset next time cause they are better and don't break.
Seriously, who needs real leather when you can have PLEATHER? Why buy fancy china, its breakable? Just get the cheap plastic dishes from walmart! And PLASTIC SPARKLES??!!!?! THAT is the best thing ever!

Belle Felicity - Almost 4;)
Belle - "Mama, you can sing Happy Birthday to me now"
Me - "No, not yet. Your birthday is a month from now"
Belle - "No mama, it's ok to sing it when its CLOSE to being my birthday"
Belle is constantly looking ahead at what's next and birthdays are no exception! She has been planning her "Rock Star" birthday party since the day after her last birthday... not kidding!
I just need her to slow down a little and stop reminding me that next year she will be 5 and then after that 6 and then after that 7 and then...

Piper - 3 Months
Today our little peanut is 3 months old. I am, of course, shocked at how time has flown. She has been such a blessing to our family and we are thankful that God gave us such a sweet surprise!
July 4th Weekend
I always look forward to July 4th and everything that surrounds it. I love the parades, cookouts, fireworks, and the fact that everything is so family friendly!
We started on Saturday by watching the parade in a town nearby. It was the perfect weather and the kids loved it.

Then Sunday night after church we all went out back (on the church lawn). We ate and the kids played and it was so nice! All the kids always have glow bracelets and they just look so sweet with their flushed cheeks and messy hair.
Anyway, everyone enjoyed it and we are thankful to have them time together:)
Cashe is getting ready to push the button to close the back door...

Fun with Family
This week we were happy to spend some time with family we haven't seen in a long time! It was so good to see all my sisters and brother and their families (and mom and dad of course;). I also had the opportunity to take some pics of little Ava. She was such a sweetheart and the perfect model!
One night, Cashe got outside (we think Belle let him out) and the next thing we knew he was in the pool in his diaper and shirt! That was the biggest diaper I have ever seen and I have decided I change his diaper WAY too often if they can hold that much liquid. Thank you Daniel, Josh and Scilla for letting him play!
