David's 3rd Birthday

How did we go from this...

David Scott

to this...

My favorite picture of David at Nathan and Lauryn's wedding

 Time seems like it is flying by. I can't believe David is already 3 years old (June 19th). He was very vocal about what he wanted for his cake...a "Monster" cake. So, this is what I came up with. It took a lot of time to decorate the frosting to look like fur, but I am happy with how it turned out and most important, he was happy with it!

Carrot cake with cream cheese frosting and cake pops for eyes

So excited for his "monster" cake

just before Uncle Scott almost burnt David's lips

Kimmie was also very excited to enjoy the cake pops

delicious

 We didn't do anything big this year. David wanted spaghetti and bread sticks for dinner, so I made that and then we had cake and ice cream later that night.

lots of fun presents

bubble guns to play together

  This is the first birthday of David's that Nathan has been here for, so I had to document that he was actually there!


the happy newlyweds

Daddy Daughter Date

For Valentine's Day (I know I am late posting this, I am finally catching up on my posts) Seth and Kimmie went out on a date to see the play Beauty and the Beast. Kimmie was so excited to go out with her Daddy. She still talks about it!!!

Children's Museum

One thing I love about where we live is the library has free passes you can check out to local museums. So, a few months ago we went to the Children's Museum with Cyndy and Scott. The kids had a blast...and so did we! It is so fun to watch them be creative and play. It was a fun day.

He painted his own face...with a little bit of Daddy's help

so happy!

He loves playing in the water

all the "kids" playing. I think Scott liked it more than the kids:)

look at those teeth

Father's Day

Words can't even describe what an AMAZING dad Seth is!!!

We love him SOOOOOOO much.

He is so much more fun than me and the kids always have a blast with him. He is the best story teller. When it is my turn to tell stories they always correct me and make me say it "just like Daddy" and then get mad when I can't make the noises exactly like he does:)

I don't know how I got so lucky, but I am so grateful for his amazing example in my life and in the lives of our children. I fall more and more in love with him each day.

Happy Father's Day, Sethy. We love you!!!!

Falling behind

Yes, I know, I have been terrible at blogging lately. As I sit here typing this my list of things to blog about is staring me in the face. But, today will not be the day I catch up. This is just to let everyone know we are still alive and I hope to get caught up soon, but not this week. We got back from a 2 week road trip last week, just in time for the final week of wedding planning. Nathan is getting married this Tuesday. In fact, Nathan's engagement is on my list to blog about but I might just skip that and go straight to the wedding post. I hope to get back to my normal blogging next week, once things settle down. Until then...
