6 month Alice

Alice girl is now 7 months old, but we got her 6 month photos back today...

 

 This little chair was Brett's Grandpa Fred's chair when he was a little one!  It's an oldie, and so special that it is being "rocked" by so many generations.

Sweet little toes.
More to come...

Dad's Race

The kids and I had fun cheering for Brett in his sprint triathlon. Their signs were so sweet. Clara wanted her sign to say "happy race dad".

Sue Sue and Pop

Mother's Day weekend was extra special because I got to share it with my mom! Sue Sue and Papa (or pop, as owen says sometimes) we here for the weekend and so was the beautiful weather. We enjoyed the park, a bike ride, and the market.





SO big!


Super cool bike riders





This was my awesome support crew at the Riverbank Run. Then we explored the market.





It felt like summer so we spent a lot of hours outside soaking it up...some in swimsuits!





My parents headed out on Mother's Day and clara and i went to the nursery to pick out flowers. We spent the afternoon potting flowers and playing outside. It was a great end to a wonderful weekend.








Also time for sprinklers with the neighbors!

Muffins with Moms

I got to join Owen at preschool today for muffins and a little performance. The kids greeted their moms with flowers and some special things they had written about us. It was very sweet and I felt so special!
