Ice cream

Ice cream before dinner?!  Don't mind if I do!!  A little sweet treat from Frost & Steam in downtown Waconia.

So tired

If only I could find a comfy place to sleep...

...apparently the bed was too far away.

Upscale

Scored a free cupboard from my in laws and upscaled it a tad.  Now it keeps my cleaning supplies up and out the way with no longer easy access for my kiddos.  Thanks Mike and La!!

Neighborhood kids

These kids will grow up to be the best of friends and I love how they already just swing on by, ring the doorbell and ask to play with our kids.  This picture is a yearly tradition we started the day before school!  How cool.

Gotta get a selfie in there.

Wedding Fun

It's so fun getting all dressed up for a wedding and holy smokies these kids look so adorable.  Suits and frilly dresses call for photos, a blog post and possibly some modeling?!  

They were full of exhausting (for the parents not the kids) energy.  We had to divert from the wedding to a nearby picnic table and distract with a coloring book and crayons.  They had a puzzle there which distracted Caleb during dinner time.  Hallelujah!  

My favorite part was seeing the kids dance together on the dance floor.

After the kids left with my mom I was able to visit with all of my relatives which always leaves me with sore cheeks (not butt) from laughing so hard.  Here's uncle Allen standing in for Kimmie during our girl cousins picture. Haha!

Girl cousins, missing two.

Adding in the guys, missing 3.

And now for the brothers and sister, missing 3.

Absolutely love my family!!!
