More Visits

7/31/13: Bryan Ashley and kiddos were in town so we made the journey up to Brenda’s to visit. We had an amazing lunch and a great visit with friends and even a few snuggles from baby Harper. The kids played great together.

I wonder if the big boys ever pictured themselves like this 10 years ago? What great dads they are!

8/1/13: Kevin and Amy came up and stayed at our place for a few days. Unfortunately it wasn’t for the best reasons but we sure enjoyed their company and wish we could visit more often! Aiden and Addilynn became great friends and it was so fun to get to spend the time we did with them all.

So one day in and I already messed up my 31 for 21 challenge. We went to the pumpkin patch last night and didn’t get home until late so that’s my story and I’m sticking to it! Two posts tonight to make up for it.

Visitors

I’m going to attempt to accomplish the 31 for 21 challenge this year. I am way behind on blog posts so I should have plenty to write about.

7/26/13 My friend Sarah and her kids came to visit us. We had so much fun. We ate lunch and went to the river. It was fast, but I was so thankful they made the extra drive to come see me. Since Sarah has two year old triplets and a four year old we had six kids 4 and under and it was amazing! They didn’t fight once and they all had so much fun together.

7/27/13 BBQ

We had a bbq when Nikki was home from Hawaii to visit. We loved having everyone over! Good food and good company.

Well This Post Seems Fitting!

These pictures are long overdue! I didn’t get time to edit them but here they are. Mr. Emmett’s baby shower. It seems rather fitting since my beautiful sister is in labor as I type nervously! I can’t wait to meet you sweet nephew you already hold a place in my heart!

Paisley’s Birthday Bash

Almost a month later I am sharing Paisley’s birthday pictures! What a blur the last year has been.

Paisley doesn’t like to look at the camera so I didn’t get the pictures I had hoped but we do what we can! Addilynn, Harlen, and Camber found an alternative for the decorations.

Paisley wasn’t too sure about her candle and even tried to grab it a couple times. She dug into her cake slowly at first but then she realized it was delicious and started shoveling it in.

Presents were a flop because Paisley was pretty exhausted by this point, but found a renewed energy when she found a puddle from the ice draining. This was by far Paisley’s favorite thing!

Thank you to everyone that was a part of her special day! I can’t say enough how much it means to us. Can’t wait to see what Paisley brings us in the next year.
