So much to blog about

I am not the best blogger & once you get behind it is so hard to catch up. I thought I would just post a few pictures of what has been going on in our lives.

Happy Birthday to Lindsey. I CANNOT believe that my little cutie pie is 5. She had a great birthday at Chuck E Cheese's with her cute little girlfriends. Grandma Riley sends the kids pillowcases for every month & this month Lindsey received a special Happy Birthday pillowcase. We are so lucky to have such talented Grandma's. Both Grandma's are great at sewing & we have benefited a great deal from their talents.

Bathroom redo- Yep that really is pink tile on the floor!! I like pink, but I am more of a neutral girl when it comes to my bathroom floor. Now that Gray is getting older we have decided that we can enforce child labor!! Let's hear it for kids that want to help.



Cub Scout Space Derby- Gray made a flying pencil



Abby's Brownie troop had the fun opportunity of spending the night in a museum. We had a great time until it was time to go to sleep. I'm not sure who scored the most points...Derek sleeping in a cave or me sleeping in the museum. We are probably tied for parent of the year at this point.

This is a picture of all the sleepy girls the next morning.
Late night + Early morning = Hunting down a Starbucks in Milwaukee for most of the moms in the morning.

I'm so glad to see some updates on your blog =)
I can't believe Lindsey is 5... I just still think of her as so little in nursery. But I guess that makes sense since my youngest is now 4 (CRAZY!!)
You guys are so cute, I'm glad your doing well =)

Our grandma makes pillow cases too and no kidding we have the exact same pillow case for our birthday night. Same fabric colors and everything. Maybe it comes in a best grandma's kit or something. So funny!

Looks like fun! I don't know why I was surprised to see Lindsey turn 5 obviously Allie turned 5 and we were pg at the same time. Go figure, wish you were still here Allie would have loved her as a friend.

Hi! Yep, Heber Valley camp. It is beautiful! I went up there last weekend to check it out. It's Mon-Fri though so should be interesting! :) We're leaving in a couple of weeks to go on Trek too, Marty and I are one of the Ma's and Pa', we're looking forward to it, it should be fun!
We haven't been to the park for a week or so, but I imagine it's close to being finished. It's crazy though because that area is HUGE, and the pavilion they put up was like as big as my front porch. One family at a time I guess. :)

My kids are loving Grandma Riley's pillow cases too, it's nice to get fun mail. How far a long are you on your bathroom remodel? Do you have any after photos?
