Fun at home and Scottsdale

Hello!!  Here is the fun we have had in May! Megan turned 30 again and we went out bowling to celebrate.  It was a magnificent time, just the 5 girls.  This is Rachelle and the birthday girl.

Tami, Me and Aarika

Birthday girl bowling.  Look at that mad form.

I was having way too much fun.  Whoo! Lay off the Diet Coke!

And Aarika looked the most professional out of all of us.

We went to Disneyland quite a few times this month before our passes were blacked out for summer.  Landon, evidently, did not appreciate Buzz Lightyear.

Aspen is 6 months old this month! She weighed 15 lbs 10 ozs and was 26.5 inches long at her 6 month check up! She is such a joy all the time.  When she is hungry, she opens her mouth really wide but very rarely yells, screams or cries.  She's a pretty decent sleeper and a great sitter.  She eats like I do, which is to say that she is a GREAT eater and loved everything I give to her.  I don't think she could be a better, happier, more lovely baby.  We are so blessed to have her.

For Hunter's birthday we went to Disneyland with Meema, Peepaw, Uncle Jeff and Uncle Jason. Hunter LOVED this day.

Hunter's fiancé came over for a playmate and they played dress up (costumes courtesy of Gramma Kathey). Hunter and Avery had a great time playing dress up, playing house and having a dance party.  Cute couple.

A train!

Landon dressed up as a race car driver.  Does it get any cuter? Nope.

Brian took Hunter on the Fathers and Sons campout for our church. This was the morning after.

Scottsdale! How we love Scottsdale.  I flew with the 3 kids while Brian drove the 6 hours by himself.  We both had it much easier than it would have been if we had all gone together.  I am probably playing Words with Friends with my Gramma in this photo and Brian is making fun of me for my WWF addiction.

Pool time! It was the first thing we did when we got there.

My princess

Hunter adored his new shooter!

Sweet girl - excited about life

Hunter hugging the little one.  I think she is a little Landon, but she does look like Hunter.

FOOD!

Yes, that's Landon flying through the air.  He is QUITE the swimmer these days.  I am so proud of him and his independence in the water.

Hunter is 100% independent in the pool.  I'm not saying i would leave him in the pool alone, but I trust him.  He is cannon-balling into the water.  I actually am confident that if either of them fell into the pool, they could get out on their own.

LOVES his goggles.

Sink baths are the best on vacation.  This is as unhappy as she gets.  "Mommy, this is ridiculous."

This boy is SO happy.

Date night! Aspen came on both of our date nights with us.  Not amazing, but she sure is a sweet baby (who refused to sleep in the restaurants.)

11 years! Today, actually.  I cannot believe I've been with this man for my entire 20s.  Over a decade of my life! I also can't believe that I love him more now than I did before.  Life together keeps getting better.

We went to our favorite ice cream place with a friend who has a baby the same age as Aspen, and a boy who is Hunter's age.  it was fun.

We had a blast in Scottsdale.  We spent almost everyday by the pool, except for the afternoon at the trampoline center (so much fun). We'll be home all of June! I'm excited to open the pool for summer.  We are blessed.
