The girls always love taking pictures with the mannequins at Old Navy…

 

They each picked a pretend sister!

I searched for this picture of Noelle and baby Anna Kate (at 14 months) playing in Anna Kate’s room after I had a deja vu moment when Mike took this picture of Rose in Anna Kate’s room below:

I was thinking to myself, I’ve seen this before.  I went back through and found the pic of this outfit on Anna Kate in this room, and was thinking, wow! sometimes they do look so much alike!

We go out to eat maybe twice a month these days… it’s definitely a special treat when we get to go relax together and enjoy a good meal!

Patios are our favorite because it’s not too cold and the girls can roam a little (which gives Mike and I a chance to visit).

This is a picture of the girls doing art at church with Layla while the adults were deep in conversation.  Good times.

 

Will we ever get over Justin Bieber!?!  I don’t think so… even Rose giggles and goes nuts.  It’s so funny.  This is the summer of his song “Boyfriend.”  They ask to listen to it almost every time we are in the car.  I enjoy the beat… it’s festive for summer!

 

Here’s Rose in Bekah’s glasses… she always knows how to save the day and make her happy!  Autumn is so sweet to Anna Kate and Rose, so it works out great when she comes over for play dates!

I walked by Mike’s office one day last week, and noticed this sign hanging on his french doors…

Apparently, we have a medical clinic right here in our house!  Have an ouchy, step right up!  We’re “Opend” for business!  I love the finger smudges all over the glass… sets the stage for what we’re all about!
