Here are 3 of the luckiest girls in the world to have such a special Daddy to celebrate!

Mike’s mom and dad took us out to dinner for Father’s Day at Outback.  It was delicious!  Stephen’s family came too, but we didn’t get any pics… next time!

Noelle and Rose colored Grandpapa pictures for Father’s Day, but Anna Kate wanted to pass this year, lol!

Rose is coming into her own.  She usually carries a purse around the house.  She knows exactly where she is going and what she wants to do!  

I love celebrating every day with my wonderful family!

Here’s to the best Dad this side of the Pico De Gallo!  Lol… we love you, Daddy!!!

This is not a bad view.  A butterfly even lit on Mike’s office window.  We missed our Daddy this weekend, but he had to oversee some important business at work. 

Anna Kate got to go to another pony party for a sweet little girl in her dance class.

Anna Kate enjoyed a lot of special time with the horses and took it all in!

Nina is the birthday girl in the middle and her neighbor Olivia on the right.  Anna Kate had so much fun playing with the big girls!

Lots of hands on learning today… textures, smells, it’s all so new for a city girl!  What once was only imaginary in her mind came true before her very eyes, as she could reach out and actually touch her fairy tale!

She kept going back for ride after ride, and so they finally let her ride down the street and back.  She wanted me to walk beside her, and I said, “Anna Kate, we’re riding into the wild wild west.”  She just looked at me and smiled.  Special moment with my girl.

Logan was born on Monday, June 11, and we couldn’t get to the hospital fast enough!

The girls were so excited to go meet their next little crush!

Landon was saying the cutest things, like, “Can we bring him home with us?”  He’s going to be the sweetest big brother in the world!

What a special little bond this is… I’m already tearing up thinking about these two!

The girls were in awe of his tiny feet!

Landon knew right where to find his mommy!

These pictures/memories make me laugh!

Mike and I both thought Anna Kate cleaned up nicely tonight, lol!  When she’s not walking around with peanut butter and jelly in her hair hanging all over her face and pen marks all over her body, she looks like a classy young lady!

There’s that spunk we love!  Noelle and I were checking up on Anna Kate and Rose the other day.  We found Rose playing in her kitchen drawer and as we were about to go find Anna Kate, Noelle said, “Now let’s go check on the wild card!”  So funny!  Love you, Anna Kate!

Congratulations Fearing family!  So happy for your sweet family of 4!

Sydney had such a fun S&S rock star birthday party over the weekend!

Happy 7th birthday, Sydney!

Here’s a pic Angela sent me of all the girls getting ready. 

They love this part!  I would too, lol!

Make-up and sparkle time!

Noelle’s hair turned out so great, and she wore it this way (pink hair included) for a couple of days after the party!  I made sure to wash her hair right before the party because I had a feeling she wouldn’t want to take it out until it fell out!

Noelle and Hadley were all dressed up waiting to get their nails painted!  My friend Angela made Sydney’s cake!  She did such an amazing job, and it tasted so good!

What a fun girl day!

We’ve been busy crafting it up around here… one day, we colored wax paper designs in a kit and then baked it.  The paper shrunk into the plastic charms and we added them to rings, necklaces, and bracelets!

Another day, we made lip gloss Julia gave Noelle for her birthday…

It was super messy, but both girls loved it!  They got to create several different flavors and colors of lip gloss, and then decorate the lip gloss containers.  We’ve done tons more that I haven’t photographed.  Anna Kate could take crafts or leave them, but Noelle has to have them to stay alive!

Summer, here we come!!!

Noelle’s been busy with parties and play dates galore!

Mike took this picture of the girls cuddling one night when I was working… so sweet!  Noelle has been asking for a real pet puppy she can carry in her purse… I told her we’d get the girls one to take care of when they are teenagers, so for now, she adopts all sorts of little pets.  Here’s a picture of her with Rolly, who got the privilege of going shopping with us one night!

She made a snuggly little home for him, complete with water drops, dirt, and leaves.

Noelle reminded me of this picture we took on Mr. Longhorn when she was 1…

We saw Mr. Longhorn again this weekend, 5 years later, and said hello!

I can’t believe Malia is already 3!  Enjoy these cute pics from her gym party!

All the kids were holding up how old they were with their fingers!  Happy Birthday Malia!!!
