Summer Fun! (2013)

We had a little photo shoot in Summer 2013 with a really cool lemonade stand.  Thanks to Kristin Taylor Photography for taking great pictures and designing a really cute set!










We also joined a pool this summer for the first time and had a great time with the kids.  They became really comfortable in the water.  Finnegan can swim almost completely on his own now and Lorelai is very independent with her swimmies on.  
















T-Ball and Ear Piercing

Finnegan played his first year of T-Ball in the Spring of 2013.  He did so well and he loved it!  His team got second place in their tournament.  He was very proud of the trophies and medal he received!  Oh and we are pretty proud of him!








Lorelai wanted to get her ears pierced and we promised her that when she was potty trained she could get it done.  Well, on the 4th of July she proved to us that she was potty trained and we took her to get them pierced.  She of course picked the biggest "diamonds" that they had.  She keeps going around saying "look at my diamonds".  


Nervously waiting for them to pierce her ears.


Proud princess!





Lorelai's 3rd Birthday

For Lorelai's third birthday she asked for a shark birthday party.  Well, I really couldn't find a shark theme that fit for girls so we went with Mermaids and had a "shark" too.  My mom custom made a table cloth that was a shimmering ombre wave design.  Amazing!  We had a lot of fun with the food and decorations and our little mermaid loved it!




This is by far the hardest and most time consuming cake I have ever made!

The SHARK!  It was filled with fruit later.  Really easy to do and a great impact.



The inside of the cake was also an ombre.  Easy to do, but it took forever.






Roatan Vacation! April 2013

Brandon and I went with Jordan and my parents to Roatan, Honduras for a week vacation.  It was a lot of fun and great to get away from real life.  Lorelai had a great time with Nana and Finnegan had a great time with Aunt Lori.  Here are a few pictures from our trip!
