Celebrate Freedom

The 
Forth of July, 2021
We finally got to see our friends and celebrate like normal!
 Then Mikayla and I got our long overdue 2nd piercing. 
Things are always better together!


 

Alone Time


 While we were away even dad got to play. 

Texas, here we come…

 The 5 of us got to go visit Aunt Shannie in Texas. Lots of “tears from heaven” but blessed and holding on to hope. Thankful for good memories! 









June Fun

 

Nana got an awesome present for her birthday, a new house. 
We enjoyed celebrating with her. 
Nana sponsored the teen beach trip when mom had to stay home and watch sick kiddos.
It is pretty amazing how they support my fun ideas. 
Just some other summer fun… 

Just some other summer fun… 

Auf Wiedersehen

 We said goodbye to our dear cousins who are moving for a season to Germany. 

So many wonderful memories. They will be missed!!!

With daddy’s gardening and swinging skills, mama now has a kid swing and a “relaxing” porch swing. We have waited for this avocado and pineapple for a while but mama says it was all worth the wait.

365

A full year at home, we enjoyed the season, but also glad it's over. Mom's favorite time was reading aloud and swinging with the boys.  Lilli's happy to stay at home but these boys and zoom didn't work too well so we are celebrating their first day back!

 

Family

Grateful through this year we have still been able to see our family.  As mama always says "God's in charge". Thankful for our health throughout this past quarantine year.
Sunday fun includes, playing with cousins and Lola.  
I also love playing Opa's beautiful piano!
 

Moment in Time

Not sure who thought it was a good idea to bring the drum set to the 6 year old's room but it only lasted for a moment.  The "Garbage Pail Kids" scared him out of his own room for sleep. 
Maybe in 10 years he can pick that up again.

The kids love to get Smokey to "pose",
 here are a few moments captured.

Photoshoot

 



For my birthday Aunt Tanya took some fun photos.

Fun 15

So glad so many of my friends got to join me 
for fun in Newport to celebrate my 15th bday!
