The good life

 I like making blog posts about the big events that happen but I also really like writing about the daily, not so exciting, times.  I feel very lucky to have three healthy kids and a hard working husband.  The days when the kids and I stay at home and just hang out are some of the best days.  I love hearing Mckenzie and Channing talking.  Their conversations are so funny.  And they usually end up in a "yes" "no" argument...about nothing. Haha! Since becoming a parent I've learned a lot.  One thing in particular is that kids don't need much.  They're more than happy with simple toys, easy games, or just dancing to "Uptown Funk" for the 100th time.  These days often seem long and difficult but I want to remember the simple times when I had all my kids at home. This is the aftermath of one Oreo....  She rather turn it into goo instead of eating it.   Justin will often take Channing and Mckenzie to the store when we need some groceries.

A blessing, 4th of July, and a 2nd birthday!

I'm not good at posting on our blog frequently, so when I do post something it usually consists of many events crammed into one post.  And this entry will be no exception! Ya'll ready for this? Cue Space Jam Theme song. I love Summer time.  You can go outside without bundling up and we spend a lot more time outside when it's warm.  Walks, fishing, picnics! Love it all! Fishing at the pond with daddy.  One of Mckenzie's and Channing's favorite things to do.  One day maybe they'll actually catch something! ;) On July 2nd we had Isaac's baby blessing.  Then afterwards the Hamilton's and the Crawford's came over for a taco dinner.  We love having family close by.  Makes these kind of events great. On July 4th we headed out to Lucky Peak with the Crawford's for some boat time!  Mckenzie was actually super comfortable going on the tube and even sitting on the easy wake trainer.  Channing wasn't too impressed with either.
