Wheeling!

Camping trip number two was to Sandlake.  We took the jeep and camper and spent the weekend wheeling and playing with friends.  This was Hannah's first wheeling trip.  She was amazing!  The backseat kept shouting, "Daddy, we're stuck . . . Daddy don't get stuck!"

Wheeeee!!!!

Sweet Smiles!

I love the hands up and expression - priceless!

So windy!

Waiting for the other jeeps to get "unstuck" -
time for the buckets and shovels to come out!

Love this!

Cheerios in the camper.

Swimming!

We got the girls a new swimming pool.  They have loved splashing and playing while we work in the yard.  Love the smiles and laughter that a little orange pool and some sunshine brings out!







Camping and Fishing!

Sorry for the long length of time between posts.  We have been super busy!  We have been camping twice, wrapped up a school year, threw a retirement party and enjoyed some family time and wood cutting at Kyle's grandparents all in a month!  Here are some of the wonderful pictures from our first camping trip to Crane Praire Reservoir.  The girls were great campers and fishers!

My Fishing Team!  

They are adoring one another these days!

Can't get enough of this picture!

Nap time on the boat

Loving the fishing pole!
(PS - the life jacket was only off for a few seconds - sorry lifeguard, coastguards, and worried grandmas!)

Princess Paige!

It is a frozen princess just about every day - in light of the movie Frozen.  She loves to dress up and twirl her blanket around the ground.  My favorite frozen conversation with her is about a song that says "he is a bit of a fixer-upper".  I told her daddy was a bit of a "fixer-upper".  I asked her what mommy was, "a fixer upper", what is Paige, "a frozen princess", what is Hannah, "a spitter-upper"!  Couldn't be more truth spoken from the mouth of a 2 year old!




7 Months Old!

Hannah is growing so fast.  She is full of laughter and smiles!  My favorite is when she laughs and giggles at Paige.  They are interacting so much and they both seem to be the best of friends.  They laugh, touch, talk, and occasionally give kisses to each other - so sweet!

A little tear, but still a smile.

There's that sweet smile and bright blue eyes!

So much to say!

Happy Easter!

We had a fun-filled Easter with lots of family and friends to celebrate along with!  The girls had a great day finding eggs and discovering treasures inside.  Here are some pictures and highlights from the day.
Paige followed a trail of skittles to her basket!

We love to find new things to put in our mouth!

Look Daddy!  Look, look!

Hunting for eggs at Grandma's house.

Got to love the accessories - 2 necklaces - why not?

All smiles!

Look at me - did I mention I can sit up now?

BFFs

The start of the great egg hunt!  Go girls, go!

So many eggs!  Can you spot them all?

I'll take that one - share eggs?  Not so much.

The basket was getting pretty full.  What a fun day!

6 Months!

Time goes by so fast!  Hannah is growing and changing so quickly.  She is not quite sitting up, but she is eating tons of solids and loves to watch all of her little friends play.  Tonight she desperately wanted to play Minnie Mouse dominoes with Paige.  She is grabbing for everything and enjoys putting things in her mouth.  I can never pick which picture I like best so here are a few of my favorites.  I just love her little cheeks - makes you want to kiss and squeeze them!  She has such a delightful personality.  Just loves to be held, cuddled, and transitions to others with a big smile.
