Dominic's First Birthday

The biggest and most recent thing that's taken place is Dominic's first birthday! Of course, there was quite a bit of celebrating over here!


Our super cute and grown up little man!


Upon waking up on his birthday morning we had a lot of fun opening presents from daddy, mommy, and big sister.








He was very entertained by the whole thing and has a very fun time! 


His favorite part; however, was his birthday breakfast - a chocolate chip Lara Bar!  



After the nice, relaxing morning we took a birthday photo shoot!!!!!






One of our favorites!










Of course, we have to get some pictures with big sister!



What better way to end your birthday than dressing up in matching costumes with daddy and going to your church's Reformation Day celebration?

It was so exciting to see our little man enjoy his birthday so much, but that was only the beginning! The following Saturday we had a Winnie the Pooh birthday party for him!


 It was fun making/prepping the decorations!


Jessica pulled Great Grandpa aside to play with her puzzles. One of the best parts about birthday parties is getting to see the family! 






"A hug is always the right size!" -Winnie the Pooh




Dom loved opening his presents! He really liked all of the goodies he got!
 
High five! We're done! Now for the cake!


As sweet as honey!


Just a little corner from the Hundred Acre Wood.

The birthday boy Enjoyed ate his cake with gusto. I think it's safe to say he thought it tasted very yummy.



Dominic is thinking - "I'll just sit here and eat this for the rest of the day..."


"We didn't realize we were making memories, we just knew we were having fun"  


"How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard." -Winnie the Pooh


We can't believe you are already one, Dominic! Here's to the many more years to come. You are loved more than words can express! 

"How do you spell love?" -Piglet

"You don't spell it. You feel it." -Pooh

Thanksgiving 2018

From the fertile mind of the master blogger himself comes the following message: "Eat your vegetables and never forget to wear your seatbelt" Now that that's out of the way, let's get on to the "meat" of this post (see what I did there? Turkey? Thanksgiving? Not doing it for you? Fine, I'll see myself out) We celebrated with both sides of the family and had a great time! Jessica and Kendy enjoyed pushing each other around. Nothing like a grandma to put a smile on your face! These two little girls are so much fun to watch! Our little family, growing up fast! A cadre of cousins calmly capturing countenances. The full gang. Hope you all had as happy a Thanksgiving as we did! -Brought to you by the fingertips of Casey, if it wasn't already obvious

Happy New Year!

This year... last year...  - or whatever you call that in between limbo time period right before the new year starts, but you're celebrating the new year so it's kinda the new year - we brought in the New Year celebrating Christmas with Casey's side of the family, which was a lot of fun!  As it turns out, Casey and I were drifting off to sleep in our cozy bed when the clock officially struck twelve, but hey we are tired parents, so no judgment, right ;)? Here's to the rest of 2019 (since hey, this post is pretty late and it's already mid February ;P)! It's already been amazing, and I couldn't be more blessed than to be able to go through life with these peeps!       God has blessed us so richly! There are no words for how much we love these two <3<3! You make me smile <3 ! And..... because we can't get enough of them... For fun, we have decided to pick a word, phra...

Hello There!

Hi Everyone! After blogging through Wordpress for a while, we decided that blogger.com was more suited to our blogging style and so here we are! We ran out of room on our other blog and couldn't post any more unless we payed a fee, which is why it's been a while since we've posted. Because of this, we do have quite a few posts in progress, so YAY! We are a family of four and nothing gives us more joy then serving the Lord together and living life to the fullest.  Jessica, our oldest, is two and Dominic just turned one (a post on his birthday coming shortly). We also have a Standard Schnauzer puppy named Klaus whom the kiddos adore!  There are so many things we love to do as a family, and Casey and I also enjoy going on adventurous dates together. Of course, We also love having quality time together just enjoying the simple things in life!  Well, that's a good enough introduction for now. After all, our future posts are what will r...
