I SUCK.

First off, I have absolutely SUCKED at blogging lately. See those last few posts? I posted them yesterday. Yeah, I know. The date's are not 7-7.  Don't judge, I am not *completely* cheating. I did actually have those posts planned out, I just never got around to actually posting them. 

Any who, I have decided that, I really need to jump back on the blogging bandwagon. I am a faithful reader of the blogs I follow, that should make me better at actually blogging right? Okay, maybe not. But I am determined to try. I feel like my blog needs more...... something. I love that I am documenting life, but I pretty much do that on Facebook as well. Plus I have A LOT more going on than what I post. SO. I will be trying out several different things.. some will work out and some won't but, the point is I am trying to find MY "niche".  I have pretty much Instagram'd my entire life recently, so here are a few photos over the past month or so :)

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 :)
