A rare picture these days...

A picture without kids! We were out celebrating our 9th anniversary and had a great night!

Ice Cream Social

Bryce & Laney loved the Ice Cream Social at Kevin's school!

Bryce hanging out with the boys!

Laney loves cooking!

Since Laney wakes up from her nap first she sometimes "helps" me make dinner. She's so proud of herself and loves to wear her apron that Grandmom made her! Isn't it so cute!! Thanks, Grandmom!

Wrapping up the summer...

Bryce and Laney spent lots of time in the back yard this summer!

They loved playing in the shark pool...and Laney is always happy coloring these days!

Bryce and Laney have been so silly with each other lately! They love jumping into pillows, chasing each other and hanging out in the pack and play.

We went to Chuck E Cheese and they had so much fun. They were really excited every time he came out to sing. Bryce still talks about going almost every day!

Bryce was able to get out of his crib so he is now in his toddler bed! We were nervous about how the transition would go but he's done great!! He still loves his sleep. :)

Summer Family Birthdays!

Over the past few weeks we've celebrated Grandmom's birthday and Jace's 2nd birthday!!

We had a 50's theme so of course we had to dance to 50's music!

Happy 2nd Birthday Jace!!!

The younger kids table...

And the big kids!

Jace knew exactly what to do on his new scooter!

Bryce was anxiously waiting for cake...clearly we were taking too long for him!

Singing to Jace!

At the lake...

We went to Illinois to visit my Grandma this summer! While we were there we took Bryce and Laney to Lake Michigan. Bryce loved the sand and the water. Laney took some convincing!

At the airport...

Bryce's new haircut!

Kevin took Bryce to get his haircut before we went on our trip. When they got home Bryce had a new hairstyle! Too cute!

Summer School!

Kevin's summer school drama classes did a great job with "Goldilocks and the Many Bears"! I still don't know how he gets first and second graders to put on a play with such a short time for practice!

The first class...

The second class...

Getting ready for football season!

4th of July

On the 4th of July we took Bryce and Laney to the Playhouses/Maze in Allen! They had so much fun running around...especially in the maze. Then we went for ice cream!

Bryce reading his book on the way home! So cute!
