makes me smile

how many bathes does a 5 year old need to take in one day?

                                  well this one thinks you can never have too many in a day-

one of my favorite things to see

reading with dad...

when he holds my hand......

                                                              it melts my heart..

monster feet slippers and ice cream

                                                          some things just go together.

2014 Ski trip

 We love, love, love to ski. This is our 4th year going and it is so fun. I am so thankful that our family is able to do these things. I am also thankful our children try new things. Ava was able to do a Black Diamond this year with me. I am super excited now that she can ski so well she can go with me. Next year Ethan will be right there with us. Nathan has come a long way too. When I met him he did not know how to ski. Cullen is skiing so good. I love watching him. It was a great get away and wonderful family time.

Ava singing at church

My sweet Ava Grace has a passion to sing. She loves it. She has been in choir for a while at church and she was asked to sing in the morning worship. She did a duet. We are so proud of her. So talented.

Ava signed up to sing a solo on a Sunday night. She sang "It's a beautiful day."
She had the whole church clapping and after everyone came up to her to tell her what a great job she did. Even the choir director for the adults is ready to recruit her.

I am so proud of Ava!
