"Adults Only" Camping Trip

This past weekend Arendall and I went camping with some friends in Big Sur. We had such a great time. Jay had some special time with Grammy, Papa, and Uncle Brad. Lily got to hang out with Auntie Megs, Uncle Emre, and Taner. Every one seemed to have had fun. Here are some pictures we took. I can't remember the last time we had such a relaxing weekend!

Jay's Art Party

We had so much fun at Jay's Art Party. Here are some cute pictures! We had Ashlee, Tyler, Samantha, Cailey, Nicholas, Fisher and Lily here to play. They all had a great time.

Everyone was so tired by the end of the day!

Chillin' with Papa

Jay had some special time with Papa at the beach while we waited for Uncle Brad's birthday party to start. He also finally said "Grammy" as clear as it gets! It was a fun day.

Lily's Baby

In October of 2008, in Negril Jamaica, we bought this doll in hopes that we would one day have a little girl to give it to. We were at a craft market when we saw a lady making these. She told us that it was a traditional doll that the girls in Jamaica played with. I was cleaning out a box in the garage a few weeks ago and look what I found! Our doll that was purchased especially for Lily. She loves it. Everytime we put it in front of her she coos and gets excited. I am so glad we have a girl. She is so much fun!

Jay just turned 2 can you believe it!!!! He is starting a preschool class 2 days a week in September. He LOVES Little Einsteins and Handy Manny. He is still totally in love with water of all kinds. He will start swimming again soon! Look at how much he has changed too>

I will be posting more pictures this week as I download them to my computer.
