Water fun!!

We knew today would be such a HOT day that we decided to take the girls to the Water Park in Visalia. They have so much fun! Colbie is walking now so she really enjoyed it! She loved walking around to the water shooting out of the ground! So cute!


Yesterday was also hot so we got our kiddie pool out and let the girls sit in the pool! Nice and refreshing!

Happy Father's Day

For Father's Day Kelly and Randy had us over for a bbq for the dads and the kids played in the pool. It was such a nice day out and we had a great time. Thank you Kelly and Randy for having us over.

Taylor and Colbie got daddy a new shirt, a razor, and a movie. Justin is such an amazing father and the best husband I could ask for!! We are so thankful to have him in our lives, we are the luckiest girls!!

Friends

While we were in San Diego we went to our friends Chris & Becca Huth's house. Chris, Becca, Justin and I all went to high school together, Chris, Becca and I all went to Fresno State together and Justin and Chris were roommates for a year, so we have all been friends for a long time. We love you guys and miss seeing you!! They have 2 beautiful daughters Abby & Jocelyn. Taylor & Abby had so much fun playing. I didn't get any other pictures because I forgot my camera....go figure. But, we had a great time seeing the animals and visiting our dear friends. Thank you Becca for having us!!

The Girls and their "pretties"

While we were in San Diego I decided to take the girls to get their ears pierced. Misty, Mary & Grammi Dee came with us to help. I don't have any pictures since I was holding the girls, we did get it on video, but it is a whole lot going on at that time.

They both look so cute though and did so good! They haven't touched them and they let me clean them with no problems. I was always afraid to it so that is why it took me so long. I am so glad I finally did it though because my little Hannah was so afraid to do it. We have been begging Kevin to let us do it for years and when he finally said YES she was scared! Glad I did theirs before they could be scared!

These are the best pictures I could get of the girls with their "pretties"....

Pool fun!

We spent the day at Misty's house while we were in San Diego. Grandpa made us some yummy spaghetti and we got to visit with the family. The kids played and we spent some time by the pool. It was such a nice day!! Taylor and auntie Mary:)
Mommy & Colbie
Taylor has yet to learn how to swim, but as long as she has a floaty she is good to go. Her and Trey had so much fun playing together!
Little Lucas...what a sweet boy!
Colbie girl was playing with the goggles..what a cutie!!

Matching suits, thanks Mim!! We had a great time and love you so much!!

Wild Animal Park

Nana wanted to take us girls to the Wild Animal Park while we were in town for the week. So we all went one beautiful day! It couldn't have been nicer outside. We hiked up and down all through the park...whew what a workout! The girls loved it!! We had a picnic lunch by the water play area. The girls got their suits on and enjoyed the water. Here are some pictures from our day....Taylor and Auntie Hannah started off posing by the gorilla. While we were there one of the birds was yelling and so Hannah started making the noise back...it was this loud wahoo sound. So funny!! The bird would do it and then Hannah would respond. What a funny bird!
Big log on our way to Discovery center.....
They got to dress up like animals.....
Enjoying some ice cream before we leave, as you can see her eyes she was soooo tired!


Loved the ice cream!
So tired from our long fun day! Thanks Nana!! We love you!!

Colbie's birthday bash

Colbie & Nana starting off the party. Then we have the arts & crafts table with my aunts Mary & Kim and my cousin Misty, Grace (in her tummy) and the birthday girl!

Yummy cupcakes to go with my Pink & Green Polka dot theme. Colbie enjoying those yummy cupcakes! She was such a mess we had to take her up to the house and change. But, she loved it and that is all that matters!
Sisters enjoying their cupcakes...I think Taylor had 3 of them!
Opening presents with the help of her big sister Taylor. Taylor opened all the presents after handing me the cards to read with Colbie. What a big helper she is.
Nana bought the girls a wagon so Taylor and Abby were enjoying a ride. It was such a beautiful day at the ranch! It was slightly windy when we were setting up, but turned out to be a perfect day!! The kids had so much fun! We had bubbles, crafts, wagon rides and cupcakes, what more could you ask for? Happy 1st Birthday to Colbie!! Thanks so much for those who came to celebrate Colbie's special day! We love you!

Colbie's baptism


We finally had the chance to get Colbie baptized. We tried back in September before her surgery, but then Justin was in the hospital and her surgery date got moved a few times. So we decided to do it before her birthday party and have one big celebration of Colbie's life!!

We are so thankful she is with us. Thank you so much to those of you who came to celebrate Colbie's baptism with us.
Tom is great!! He married my mom & Kevin, Dodie & Jeff, Justin & I, Chad & Laine and he also baptized Taylor. He is very special to our family! Colbie liked him too!
The Kelley Family!! Birthday party to follow.

Colbie's turns 1!!

Birthday girl!! Colbie is always such a happy girl when she wakes up, she is a true delight and ray of sunshine! Taylor enjoyed helping Colbie open her birthday presents. We let Colbie open the presents from us on her birthday before her party.
We got her "Violet" and she loves her as you can see. We bought our friend Keaton "Scout" the boy version for Christmas and Kelly has told us how much Keaton loves him so we decided to get Colbie the girl version. She is so sweet, you program their names and favorite things in it. Then Violet sings to you!! Colbie and Taylor love her! Nice for the long trip to Nana's house.

Later that day we had a little get together at the Sports Park with some other moms and friends. Kelly made some delicious cupcakes for us, Colbie of course loved them!
Happy birthday to our Colbie girl!! We love her so much and are very thankful to have her!!
