See the Giraffe's

We spent the day Saturday at the zoo! Boy was it busy. Finally a day with no rain and everybody decides to go to the zoo. Well we of course followed the crowd! Nate had the day off so we thought we would do a family outing so he could enjoy it with us. 
Ashlyn LOVED the giraffe's. We had a difficult time pulling her away from that exhibit. It was cute!

Father's Day

Happy Father's Day to our favorite daddy!

Happy Father's Day to my favorite Dad and my girls favorite Papa!!




We spent Father's Day at my Dad's house BBQ'ing. It was very enjoyable. It sprinkled on us a couple of times, but nothing that could ruin the day! 
The kids had fun playing together, it's been awhile since they have been able to play. I didn't get too many good pictures. 



Happy Father's Day to Keith! We miss you more than you know!

Another Rainy Week!


Last Saturday Alexis had her last soccer game....or 1/4 of a soccer game. We have had nothing but rain for at least a month now. So Saturday was super cloudy and getting windy, however no rain yet. So off to soccer we went. While there it started to thunder and lightning, & sprinkle. In a matter of 3 seconds it was a torrential downpour. By the time the kids and I got to the car we were 100% soaked. So, home to dry off and change clothes. 

Since it has been so crappy, the poor girls have been stuck inside. They have been wanting to swim so bad! So off to Grandma's we went to hot tub (closest thing to swimming). Ashlyn wasn't to thrilled about the hot tub, something was a little to scary for her. But Alexis was a little fish.
So, that was the weekend!

This week has been fairly quiet. Ashlyn got a small cold and has been a little bug. She's feeling a bit better today, she just has a nasty cough and is still super grumpy! 

Oh, yeah and we chopped Alexis' hair off. I though it would be cooler for the summer. It took her a little bit to like it but she thinks it's cool to have short hair like Dora.

Last day of Kindergarten



Alexis' last day of Kindergarten is tomorrow. So to Thank her teacher we made her a little jar with yummy skittles. It was cute! Alexis is pretty proud of it and can't wait to give it to her tomorrow. 


I can't believe she will be a big 1st grader next year!

Kids Eat Free!!







Kids Eat Free at Chick-fil-A on Wednesday evenings. We ventured out to a different location tonight where they do face paintings. Well of course the girls HAD to get their face painted. It was pretty cute, I just wish they could have enjoyed it a bit longer. Instead we had to come home for baths and bed. 
I could not get Ash to sit still long enough for me to get a photo. I did the best I could wtith her wiggling!

Slacking already!

So my goal was to try and update our blog weekly, well you can see that I have already slacked on that. It's been quite awhile and we have been busy, busy, busy. I'll try to recap the last little while. And unfortunately I do not have many pictures. 

Here is a picture of the girls being silly. They thought it was funny to wear Mr. Potato Head's glasses. 

May 29-31 weekend
Busy weekend - Alexis had her final dance recital from 11-12:30, then it was off to soccer at 1:00, and the day ended at Kylee's 1st birthday party at 2:00. It was a fun but very exhausting day! We got home about 5 pm, showered and were pretty much ready for bed.
















June 1-7
This week was pretty quiet. Nate's mom came in town, she came down to our house on Wednesday and hung out with Nate and the girls for they day. Alexis had Beach day on Wednesday at Kindergarten. She though that was pretty neat! (sorry no pictures)
Thursday - Alexis and I went and got pedicures. She thought that was the coolest thing! We now have cute toes! 

Friday was Alexis' Kindergarten program. It was SO cute! They sang a song for every month of the year. I will post a little video as soon as I can figure out how. 
Saturday after soccer we went with my Mom to Lagoon. It was the opening night for the shows. We were so excited to see Cody perform. He did such a GREAT job!! I am excited to see more of his shows.
