Happy Father's Day

It's a special week around our house! Yesterday was our Family Day - celebrating 3 years ago when we were first together as a family of five. We will do a special family outing this weekend to celebrate! I just learned that June 17th is also the set date for Father's Day in Guatemala - pretty cool!

We will celebrate Father's Day as well this weekend! I have a very special relationship with my dad and I love to see Chris and Becca develop their special daddy/daughter relationship! Chris is just a WONDERFUL father to all 3 of our children! I can't imagine doing this life with anyone else beside me!

I follow Steven Curtis Chapman's manager's blog and he put out a request for father/daughter pictures for making a special Cinderella Father's Day video! Today I found out the video was up on You Tube!
So here it is - make sure to pay close attention at the one minute mark!

Spring Time!

I am already a few months behind again! I would love to think I keep up with everything in my life - but as you can see that just isn't the case - but I figure better late than never!

Here are some pictures from our trip to the zoo! School was cancelled for 2 days in early May because of Swine Flu - we took the opportunity to enjoy a beautiful spring day!



We opened the pool in mid-May. We had some good swimming weather, but the past week has been cooler so we are excited to get back in!


We've made 2 fun trips to the beach at Kensington with the Bakers!


We hosted the Moreno family for Memorial Day and tried a new take on our traditional watermelon picture!


Just last week I chaperoned Steven's field trip to the farm. It was a beautiful day and the Kindergarteners had a great time!
