A gift from Grandpa!

A few weeks ago my dad sent an awesome care package full of these for the kids...

Little did he know that we had just purchased a few packs of our own seeds to plant in our garden - so the timing was perfect.

Scott did all of the dirty work (literally) and showed the kids how to plant and grow the seeds.

Now we have this!!

All the kids are SUPER proud of their garden and they love check on the progress daily! Brooke calls it her garden; she'll say 'Mama, look at my garden. These are all my plants!' Too cute!!

Thanks Dad!!!

Whoa baby, it's been a lonnnng time!

OK, here we go... my attempt to play catch up... Scrolling down you see it was just a few posts ago that I was so proud of my new lil 2nd grader. Well as time so often does it just flew right by and we just wrapped up 2nd grade year... watch out 3rd grade. As tradition in our house here is Sam's mini shoot commemorating her 2nd grade year.

Someone had a birthday...

Albeit almost 6 months ago, but better late than never. Samantha turned 9 years old in January and I cannot believe how big she is. Every once in a while I will catch a glimpse of her and just think to myself...WOW, you are all mine...I get to keep you forever!! I love that she is in our family and it would not be the same without her.

Random photos...

Whenever I have a photo shoot planned at my house in my little “studio” I always beg and plead with the kiddos to sit for just a second so that I can get the lights and set up just right before the actual shoot. Well, in doing that, I always end up with the most random of photos... ENJOY! [taken December 2011]

Juggling it all...
