Summertime fun!

This summer is so quickly passing us by. Kevin has been busy with the business, I have been busy with my job at LGH and the kids have been busy pesting eachother...at least Michayla pesting Elijah. Michayla is learning how to talk more and more and we have been so blessed by how she tries to say new words all the time. She officially knows her ABC's and she can count to 10. We are so proud of her! Elijah is crawling EVERWHERE and standing up on everything he can reach his hands on. He is beginning to pull things off the kitchen table...always right after I just set it for dinner! Kevin is still in the middle of remodeling our kitchen, second floor laundry and small bathroom. It is going well, but takes a lot of time since he is doing everything himself. The laundry room is pretty much complete...except for some painting (which is my job!). Next he is going to tackle the kitchen. We are both excited and ready for it to be complete! Kevin is now halfway through real estate classes. Him and I are both excited for the oppourtunities that are coming with him getting his license. We will see what the Lord has in store with this! My plan was to begin school this fall to get my RN. However, after much prayer and wrestling with the Lord...we both have decided to put this on hold for now and just focus on our children and eachother for the next season. We are both so EXCITED for life to slow down a bit this fall. Enjoy the pics from the last few months!

For July 4th my family came in town for a few days. They had a shin dig up a park near us, so we took the kids. They loved it! M and I got to ride a "train" around the park together!

Michayla loves brushing peoples hair! This is her Uncle Aaron being so patient with her!

Michayla's favorite pastime! She always says..."I push Ijah!"

Kelley and I surprised our husbands and took them camping for fathers day! What an experience! We'll just leave it at that!:)

Our daughter and her makeup! She is so proud when we paint her nails...or put makeup on her!

Michayla loves the park with the water. We can be within two blocks of it and she says...Mommy water park!

We asked her to get her shoes on for church and this is what she came to us with!
