Congrats Whitney!

We bought Whitney this bike for her 3rd birthday!

The last few days she FINALLY is able to ride it!

She even rode it around the whole block!

We are so proud of our Whitney!

Father's Day

I am so thankful for all of the dads in my life!

My daddy has always been there for me! One of my favorite memories is when we were younger.

We used to play Tape Ball Baseball! It was so much fun! 

I loved going on trips because Dad would always wash the car inside and out before we would leave.

My dad has taught me so many life skills! He taught me how to take car of a car, how to change the oil, how to change a flat tire. He taught me how to make a decision. He has taught me how to drive, how to tie my shoe, how to ride a bike. He has taught me so many things that I can't even remember them all. One of my favorite sayings from my dad is, "You had the young, fun and broke parents. Robert and Lizzie have the old, and rich parents." I am so grateful for the young fun and broke parents that raised me. I am also grateful for the old and rich parents now! 

I am grateful that he is the BEST Paga ever! My kids just love him to piece! (and his truck too!)

I guess what I am trying to say is that he is the BEST DAD EVER!!

I love you daddy!

Holding his first grandchild for the first time!

Justin Bryan Hansen

Justin is an awesome dad to our 3 children!

They love him to pieces! He works so hard for our family and takes excellent care of us!

He is so gentle, kind, loving and a great example to our kids! He has no problem just jumping in and playing with them, whether it is in the water, or on the swings! 

We love you Justin!

I have a wonderful father-in-law as well! He treats me like his own daughter and I love him tons!

He is an awesome grandpa!

We love you Daddy, Grandpa and Paga!

First Camping Trip

This weekend, we went on our very first camping trip of the year! It was Brayden's first time too! He LOVED it. The girls had so much fun playing outside and eating lots of goodies. 

They hated the s'mores because they got sticky.

Crazy kids! I LOVED them!

We went to Eagle Park located here:

a WHOLE 1.8 miles from home!

It was awesome! Here is our camp site:

Kevin and Holly came out that night to help us 

eat our s'mores and our waffle cone delights.

YUMMY!!

Whitney kept playing 'merdaid'

And then Carlei wanted a turn, of course.

After breakfast, we packed up or stuff and went to Nature Park that is right around the corner.

Whitney and Justin had fun splashing in the puddles together.

The end result...

Carlei splashing in her little puddle.

The girls cried when we left to go home!

We will definitely be camping again!

FHE

Tonight we went to splash pad at Porter Park for Family Home Evening.

Whitney LOVES the water, Carlei does not. 

They switched roles from last year!

After Whitney went down the slide, that big bucket on the top

dumped over and Justin got soaked!

Brayden already for church!
