July giveaway.

Laila & Lillian (aka Yai-ya & Yiy-yian)

These cuties have been separated far too long.  We FINALLY set up a play date filled with frozen yogurt, sand & lots of curly hair...  

Lai will sleep well tonight!

"Sometimes I feel quite CERTAIN there's a JERTAIN in the CURTAIN."

Loving the SONshine...

Eating outside is all the rage.

Bring-on summer time snacking on the porch & meals on the deck!

***(FYI - for those interested, I've back-dated some posts of Seaside & U2 so, scroll on down if ya missed 'em.)

This pic demonstrates my children perfectly.
L reading with her flips on the wrong feet & Ax grazing.  

Mini's.

Jason's station gifted these amazing costumes to Jeff's kids.  Since N wasn't here, L tried hers on for size.

Happy 6th Natalie!

Happy birthday to our rainbow, sparkly, sporty, legging wearing, lovely niece!  We love you and pray for you everyday!

TA-DA!  Isn't this such a fun cake idea?!  Way to go mama Melis!  

Seaside.

This was our family's first time to Seaside without Jeff.  It was good, hard, special, emotional & fun all at once.  A ga-jillion pictures were taken but, here are some of the goodies:

Little hand reaching up to see what all the giggles were about...

Happy 6th! 

March 2010 - 3 wks before Ax joined our fam.  Uff da! 

June 2011 - So thankful to have him OUT (& my bangs grown out...!)  ;)

First time feeling sand.

Special place.  Special family.  Seaside.
