June catch up

I am slowly (very slowly!) catching up on "r" blog. This pregnancy is presenting many challenges I did not expect that have caused me to put some things on the back burner. Overall, all is well... just a bit delayed. So here is a June catch-up!

To be honest, we did not do much! We went to the 'dancing bunnies' splash park which is where these pics are from. We celebrated a low-key Father's Day weekend with Jason! He went shooting with a friend and we had a special notebook made with pics from our NC vacation on the inside covers for him. He loved it! We celebrated our 8 yr wedding anniversary! And at Olive's suggestion we toured a local chocolate factory just like "Monkey George" in one of Olive's fav Curious George books (sorry, no pics were allowed at the tour!) And that brings us to July....coming soon! :) Thanks for your patience!!

One evening a few months ago, Jason and I decided to head up to bed. We found it was already occupied by an adorable girl in a pink headband reading momma's books! I found these pics on the camera and just had to share!

A visit to North Carolina!

Our good friends, Nerissa and William, let us come spend a week with them over Memorial Day weekend. We had a great time just hanging out and letting the kids play but we also ventured out for a few road trips!

We went to a natural science museum which had everything from Dinosaurs, aquariums, a miniature grocery store, a ship to play on, even a small zoo! It was fantastic!

Jason researched and found out there was a tank museum not too far away. William, Owen, Jason, and Olive checked it out!

Jason found Olive a pink (her fav color) camo hat in the gift shop!

For some reason, the tank museum also had a dinosaur. It wont let me flip the pics but I couldnt not post them. Jason told Olive to roar like a dinosaur. She did! And then attempted to teach Owen how to do it too!

 

We also went to an awesome state park in the Blue Ridge Mountains that had a lot of big, gorgeous waterfalls to hike to.

We had an awesome time with our friends and exploring northern NC! Thanks so much for having us Nerissa and William!

May catch-up!

I am way behind on blogging but I am going to slowly catch up!

We took a trip to Amish country in May! We mostly took pictures of beautiful Amish furniture but here are a few of an ice-cream stop on the way home!

Wood floors are so awesome on rainy days! We just roll up the rug and bring the bikes inside for the girls to ride around! They love it!

We have a Mother's Day tradition of going to the Zoo! The girls fav thing now is to feed the Lorakeets nectar! The birds come right up to you, even perch on your arms sometimes!

We also went on a family vacation to North Carolina at the end of May! We have so many pics.... that will be my next post!

Random pics I love from the last two months!

Just some fun pics from the last two months. These two are getting big and make me laugh everyday! Motherhood is a lot of work.... but the joy is well worth the effort.
