Memorial Day trip

We had a memorable Memorial Day weekend at Great-Grandma's farm in Milton-Freewater. This was Isabel's first time there and we all had a good trip. we went with my mom and dad, who also brought my 2 nieces Jaime Lynn and Bri Ella. My sister and her family came as well.

Planting the fields

we went out to Farm Grandpa's and helped him and Grandma plant. we had a good time and got some work done with them. the boys found a frog and were loving being a part of the work too.

Here is how I found Isabel the other day. she was in a basket of books with her Lamb, reading. so sweet!

My girl

here are a few fun things Isabel is up to!

Flowers are her favorite thing! this is her learning to smell not touch! (she blows)
she loves books, she snuggled up to Aunt Regina.

her first pretty toes!

Violin Recital

Colton and Rhett had their Suzuki Book 1 recital this last Saturday. they were so cute and had a great time. here are some pictures to mark the day. There are 16 songs in book one and Rhett knows them all and Colton got to play 11 of the 16 (he has only been playing 10 months). they both did a great job! This is their teacher Mrs. Cassella

the day

he is singing Happy Birthday to YOU! He loved traditional birthday breakfast!

he finally figured out how to hold up three fingers
he loved his Gluten Free cake and even pick out from his own car's which one's where cool enough to be on his cake.

this was him trying to figure out how to put up just three. it takes much more coordination than just two fingers. it turned out looking like "rock on!".

we had a low key day with a small BBQ and cake for him with David's family. he was so happy to know that I made him a cake that wouldn't hurt his tummy. love you little man and know food goes a mile with boys. I will do my best to make you treats and things to make you feel special and loved!

Oh and my favorite thing Clay said of the day was when I asked him what he would like on his Hot Dog? Clay says "UMMM I would like some WHIP CREAM!"

Happy Birthday Clay boy!
