Preschool Graduation!

I can't believe my little man is already done with preschool! This year has thoroughly flown by! Today was Jake's preschool graduation. They had a little ceremony and cupcakes to celebrate. His teachers, Mrs. Lee and Mrs. Faw, were wonderful! I feel very strongly that Jake was meant to be in this class. He has grown by leaps and bounds since the beginning of this year. I am so thankful that he was able to go to New Life Christian School.
Here are some pictures from today:

I asked Jake to hold this up so I could take a picture of him with his certificate...this is what I got. Turkey....he's lucky he's soo cute. :)

Leavenworth Camping Trip with the Harris Family!

This camping trip was a lot of fun! It was wonderful to meet up with Michael and Christina and camp together. They are such AWESOME people! Here are some random pictures that I took on our trip. I wish I would have taken a BUNCH more...oh well...next time, right?

I took this picture of Aleigha on our way to Leavenworth. We stopped to get some food and she decided that instead of giving me her plug she would put it under her chin! Hilarious!

Christina took this beautiful picture of the view from our campsite.
Christina, also, took this picture of our camping site. It turned out to be a pretty great spot, except for the gravel! We were lucky we really didn't have any neighbors close by. It was great.Another shot by Christina. Aren't these boys just TOO cute?! Evan and Jake got a long marvelously. It was awesome that they hit it off so well.These next pictures are taken down by the Wenatchee River. It was GORGEOUS but COLD! (Christina took this one.)Christina got a shot of the Jakester and me...he is such a turkey!
Jakes big log he found. He threw it in the water and then ran back out to get it!
I am very pleased with these next few shots that I was able to take. I love how the water is sparkling and how the kids look. Very beautiful.
Aleigha was sitting by these flowers just right by our camp and Christina was able to take some shots of her. So sweet.
We went to downtown Leavenworth and the kids were able to play on some inflatables. They had a great time! (Another shot by Christina)
After our downtown jaunt, Jon and I took the kids back to camp, while the Harris's looked at some more shops in Leavenworth. We ended up taking the kids to the pool to cool off! It was wonderful! And the kids had a blast!
We had such a great time visiting and hanging out with the Harris's. They are such a wonderful family. We did come home a day early, not because we were on eachothers nerves, but we just felt that it would be best to do that. We were able to get some things done on Monday and hang out. It was wonderful to have that extra day to just relax at home. All-in-all, a great weekend!

So, I upload my pictures and this is what I find:Crazy kid! LOL

Mother's Day

Yeah, I know...I'm always posting things WAAAAY late! Need to do better about that. Anyways, my Mother's day was pretty nice. We had a great day at church and was able to get a family picture in afterwards. Jon surprised me with a CRICUT--totally not expected--that I was able to open up a few days before Mother's Day! I am SO blessed to have such a wonderful family. Love you guys!!

Goodbye Crib!

Hello Big Girl Bed!

Yesterday, we took Aleigha's crib down and finally moved the day bed into her room. She was SOO excited to have a big girl bed. A milestone moment!

Aleigha plays horsey

A few days ago, I hear Aleigha going "HEE-HAA, HEE-HAA". I go and see what she is doing, and this is what I find:

Isn't that just hysterical?! I was dying!!! She loves that swiffer sweeper and I don't mind that she plays with it...but I never thought she'd do this. LOL Love it!!
