Summer Family pics

Last week we had our family pictures taken, and I am so in love with them. Amber did a great job getting what I had in mind.
My kids didn't make it easy though.
Olivia insisted on wearing her sunglasses, and crown.
I had to put iTunes on "Let It Go" just so she would think about cooperating.
We also had to play a game of Simon says so they would do what we asked.
In the end it was all worth it. I got some pictures I will forever cherish, and remember how they were at this age.
I'm so glad the bearded man let his beard down. It's not easy getting him to take it out of his "tail"
I can't wait to frame these.
Picture overload coming up
 
 
 
 
 
This kid seriously takes the BEST pictures.
 
 
 

 

 How is it he is already turning 6??
 And my baby is turning 3... I can't handle it!!
 
 

Thank you SO, SO, SO much Amber.
 If you're looking for a photographer Amber is your girl. You can find her here, or here

St. John summer 2k14

If you follow me on Instagram you've probably noticed my StJohnsummer2k14 hashtag. I'm using it to document all of our fun summer activities. 
So far we have a lot going on!
We started off our first day of summer with this yummy breakfast. Cinnamon rolls+waffle iron= yummy cinnamon roll waffles. These were to die. 
Afterwards we headed to the monthly Home Depot work shop. Carson's friend,Tyler, met us up there. Today's craft was riding lawn mowers. I love these free work shops makes for a fun, free, summer activity. 
After the work shop we went to the pool where I didn't take a single pic, then I surprised C by taking him to get a sno cone.
After naps we went to my moms for dinner and some more swimming. 
Cam sandwich.
Thanks for dinner mom. It was yummy!

Spring baseball

Baseball is finally over for the season. We'll still have some practice but until fall no more games.
It's so nice to be able to sleep in on Saturdays, and not be rushing to the ball fields. 
We made it to the play offs, but lost the second game putting us out.
Carson improved so much this season. He still has a long way to go but he'll get there. We had a great season. 
While big brother is playing ball Olivia is playing beauty shop. 
These girls have so much fun playing together. 
Is she a diva or what?

Pearson's golf par-tee

Friday morning we headed to Pearson's 3rd birthday party.
 Pearson had the cutest golf themed party.
 It was all outside. The kids played with his outside toys, and Katy bought each family a plastic golf set to play with and take home as their favor.
Carson, for whatever reason, liked organizing them in the wagon and pulling them around. 
He also liked hanging out in the hammock. My handsome almost 6 year old!
Olivia did some serious lawn mowing. I'm sure Matt was wishing she was really mowing the grass for him.
Katy cut some uncrustable sandwiches in half with fruit & cheese balls for the kids to eat.
Since it was messy I made my kids strip to eat. They weren't appropriately dressed for an outdoor party.
They also strip when there's bright green icing involved. 
Olivia got to love on her baby some before he went down for a nap.
Thanks for inviting us Pearson. We had a good time celebrating with you. We love you so much!
