Red, White & Blue

We celebrated America's birthday at Mimi & Papa's lake house.

Harper has blossomed so much this last year with her swimming skills.

She had no fear playing on Mable

And jumping off the boat dock with her cousins

She had a great time tubing until Uncle G went too fast & flipped her off the tube!

Aunt C saved the day & rescued her, thank you!

Luckily, I didn't witness the wipe out.

Melaina definately is not our little "fishy".

She's cool just hanging with Mimi taking naps!

Natural Beauties

The kids had a great time.

We were all exhausted after the long weekend & needed a few days to rest up.



Happy 4th of July to everyone!

More Celebrating

Melaina celebrated her birthday 3 different times this year.

She had a party at her daycare, a family party & we celebrated on her actual birthday, July 2.

These were taken in the morning, July 2, 2013



Enjoying her cupcake & presents in the evening.

Happy Birthday sweet girl!



Three Times the Fun

In case you haven't heard, a special little girl turned three yesterday!

We had a dual birthday swim bash

 for Melaina & Cael at Aunt Paula's!

And recognized Eliot's graduation from high school ( Yay, E!)

The unseasonable temps & lightening kept the kids out of the water most of the time, but they were able to jump in for awhile.

 Thank heavens for big sisters!
Mama or Daddy didn't have to get in :)

Just a few kids were there !

 

Quite the party for Miss M!

Unfortunately,  H & M are battling/recovering from a virus (cough/congestion/fever) from the weekend.

Their spirits ( and mine ) were a bit frazzled from the big party.

Hoping for a speedy recovery!

Happy Birthday to my sweet girl....
