Life has been so fun and busy - that I haven't not taken the time to update the blog recently.... I am taking a few of our favorite summer moments to share! Just to catch us up to the end of August. Well wishes to everyone!

Welcome Abigail!

Well, we definitely realized we are a dog family and after four months without one - it was time! Brendan found Abigail when he was searching through SPCA's and came across a rescue in Redding, CA. He watched her stay on the site, week after week and finally - we bit the bullet, filled out the adoption application, loaded up
Lexi and took the three hour drive "Just to meet her."

Two minutes into meeting her, she was in LOVE with Brendan. He sat down to fill out the paperwork and she put her paw on his. She and Lexi are fast friends - they already have figured out how to play soccer ball. She has the sweetest disposition! Can not wait for everyone to meet her!

Zac Brown Band Concert AKA DATE NIGHT!

For Brendan's birthday, I got him tickets to see Zac Brown Band at Raley Field with Sushi for dinner before hand. Raley Field has a great view of the Sacramento Skyline! We were having so much fun, one of the staffers came by, gave us wrist bands and took us down to the field so we could be up close and personal!

April 2011

Using the tractor for safety after opening the walking, talking quack quack from Grandma!

Thank you Easter Bunny! I love my new sunglasses, monkey bracelets and pink rubber ducky!

Decorating Easter Eggs with Dad... stickers EVERYWHERE!

Playing Cars!

She is supposed to be sharing with Cousin Carter... not sure that is the look of sharing!

Ummm... playing football in the house? Collin and Lexi - who was watching you?

My favorite time of the year, playing outside and doing sidewalk chalk.

A POPSICLE! Well not really, its a pedialyte pop left over from when she was sick - but we won't tell her ~ she thought it was the best!

Silly Grandma! Stickers don't go on noses...

She sooo loved getting to ride in the wagon with all the flowers! She has a great eye for helping to pick them out and was quite a helper in digging spots in the yard for them to go!

iSean

There is a reason we call Uncle Sean, iSean... Thanks for teaching Lexi all about iPads and iPhones - she's already a pro!

A Visit with Hannah!

They are both sooooo HUGGABLE!

Sweetness!

At the Tower Cafe after Fairytale Town!

Photo Op?? We tried, but the big blue bunny was kinda hot!

Running around playing!

My First Hair Cut

Getting ready, watching Daddy in the chair getting his hair cut...

Really unsure about this whole thing!

But I can help with my own comb, so maybe it will be okay afterall!

Okay... I like my new trim and shape and I even like Stacie!
