Uncle Jeff

We LOVE spending time with Uncle Jeff!

My parents are doing some serious remodeling: Dad is bringing his Chiropractic practice to the house! So... Jeff and Chris have been putting in a lot of hours there helping out. I've been there with the kids watching and pretty much just getting in the way. Jeff has spent some time with Nixon and Mazzy and I have LOVED watching them interact. You're a cute Uncle! We love you!!!

May was GREAT!

We have had yet another fun filled month! It started with May day and the festival at Waldorf. It was my first time seeing the May poll ceremony. I loved it! I want a May poll next year! I think I might becoming a little bit of a gnome lover! Haha.
Ryan was in town for a few days and of course we all have a blast together. Never a dull moment!
We broke in Bonnie's birthday present. We got her a fire pit in April. It was so fun pretending to camp out in the backyard. It was a great FHE activity!
Chris and I had to get over the fact that our Lake Powell trip was canceled, so we headed to the Coast. (the next best thing)! We rented a pop-up camper trailer thing, (because I'm a wimp) and headed over to New Brighton with the Aldamas, Swarbricks, and Vonaseks. It was great fun bonding with new and long time friends and watching the kids create friendships and fun memories. The weather was getting better everyday to make the trip perfect! My only complaint is that it was too short!!!
Wow! Now it's June! Summer is heavenly! Have a great month everyone!

We love sharing our birthdays!

I think Nixon and Mazzy blew the candles out so fast that Chris and I didn't even get a chance to make a wish. Do you still make wishes when you turn 30?

With the help of family, I had 30 gifts wrapped and in a certain order for Chris to open. He was a little overwhelmed! I love watching him like that! The 30 gifts ranged from shaving cream, his favorite cereal and snacks, new clothes, pictures from the kids, and of course the "Book" that so many of you helped with. We brought him to tears! It was truely a special moment for him that he will cherish forever. Thank you, thank you!!!! (shutterfly.com rocks)!!!

Happy Birthday to US!!!!

It's funny to think that this picture was taken before we had Nixon and Mazzy with us! Chris and I don't get too many pictures of just the two of us these days. We love having our birthdays 3 days apart. We get to celebrate together! We have a lot of little things planned, but we are going to Santa Cruz and camping on Tuesday. We are craving the beach! Happy Birthday to Us! Love you Chris!

Nixon and Mazzy's Parties!

Here you see captain Nixon and his first Matey Pirate Mazzy! We had a great birthday party. It was so fun having so many family and friends around us and we couldn't have asked for a warmer day! Thanks to all those who helped out, (Aub and fam, Tam, and Jim) and to our surprise guests (Brian and Callie Hill)! Another year older and wiser too!! Hope you enjoy the party slide show. We also went MONSTER GOLFING on Nixon's birthday, so I threw in a few pictures of that fun day. Does anyone else struggle with post-party blues? Good thing Chris and I celebrate in a few weeks!
