Vacation!!!

We had a wonderful reunion vacation on the sunny beaches of Florida last week.  We had so much fun with family staying at the great beachhouse they rented for the week, and enjoyed playing in the pool and playing in the ocean.  Thank you to Katey and Mary for putting this great reunion trip together!
 Getting packed and ready to go.  Is my swimsuit in here??
Ready for take-off!

She crawled for the 1st time on her hands & knees, in the Houston airport.

Pool time with her Daddy.

All tuckered out.

Catching Up Again

We were so busy getting ready for our Florida vacation last week that we got behind on posting pics & video, so here are a few things from before we left...

You may have seen that Sun Chips bags are now compostable.  Additionally, they are very crackly and lots of fun to play with (probably better to do this when they are empty, though).  The underlined title is the link:

She really surprised us one day with this...

Playtime at the Park

Took her to a local park on Monday night that has baby swings, so she got to try that for the first time and loved it.  She started kicking her legs mad giggling as soon as she was in it.
She liked swinging and watching the other kids swinging at the same time, too.  

Squinty Face

She has started making this funny face all the time that just cracks us up. 

Sunny Sunday

All dressed up for church.


We took advantage fo the great weather to get some yardwork done and planted rose bushes. 
Grace loved being outside, too. 
She was so good and just played in the yard, climbed on Emma, ate a little dirt....

We had a great time at Ella's 1st Birthday party on the 21st.
