Fourth of July!

I wish I would have planned out our festivities a little bit better & I did not get many pictures during the day. But we did have a good day. Starting with the parade in the morning, fun zone afterwards with a trip to the USS Lexington to get out of the heat and fireworks that night :) 

Claire's Birthday Weekend!

Claire's Birthday weekend started out with her biggest present from her parents... a new bicycle. Birthday cake and dinner that night and Funtrackers the following day :) 

 

Happy ELEVENTH Birthday Claire!

ELEVEN??????????????????????????? Are you kidding me???? HOW did THAT happen? I still view this girl as being the three year old that followed me every where I went! BUT, she sure is growing into a very beautiful, very caring, amazing pre-teen!

Happy THIRD Birthday Kami!

I can't believe this little beauty is turning THREE already! Where did the time go??? And even worse, I did not get to see her on her birthday, yet again.. two years in a row now :(  But I am sure she had an amazing birthday anyway :) 

Portland Beach

Keith really wanted to make it out to the beach before leaving for a month to Colorado. So we took the kids down to the Portland beach. we did not go swimming, but we had fun walking the trails and exploring. :)
