August - September - October 2018

We have done our best to take advantage of the end of summer.  Here are some random pictures over the last few months. 

Happy Anniversary to Us! We have officially been married for 13 years and together for 16. Time flies when you are having fun. 

Eliza started Pre-K 4!

Ever got her 1st haircut, even though she didn't officially need one yet. This picture was from before. lol. She did great!

Another fabulous year of the Squirrel Festival. 

Decorating cookies was a big hit. 

Fun days at all kinds of different parks and playgrounds. 

Eliza and her Magnolia Jane tree. 

Fall school pictures were a success.  I have yet to order any prints because I cannot decide which ones to pick. I asked Dan to help, he looked at them and just told me "good luck" haha.  I can't have 20 of these on the wall, but I want to. I might have to get a big collage of some sort. lol

Ever started a Mothers Day Out program that is two days a week. She loves going to see her friends and her teacher Mrs. Alex. On this day she looked so grown up in her little jeans. 

Happy Birthday to me!

Quick trip to the Kansas City Zoo.

Eliza rode her first horse! 

We took a Farm to Train dinner ride. Our train car had a glass roof and it was really cool. 

We picked the best pumpkins!

For Halloween the girls were Shimmer and Shine. Don't ask me which is which. They are cute cartoon genies. Ever did not like to take pictures because we were keeping her from more candy. Crystal Bridges had a great Halloween festival and it was such a beautiful day. The weather dropped and was raining on the actual holiday, so we were so glad we went. Eliza helped make their necklaces and bracelets and she loved it so much. 

I hope everyone else had a wonderful fall!

Summer 2018

These are in no particular order. We have had such a busy summer! Part of the reason is because Daniel has been home a lot more, so we have more time for adventures. I have put a comment with each picture and hopefully I can remember details. haha

Sweet/Stubborn Ever is 21 Months old. 

We rented a boat to celebrate our anniversary.  The girls loved it and the water was a perfect 87 degrees. 

Happy 13th Anniversary

We took a quick trip to Tulsa and went to the Zoo and Aquarium. Here is the mandatory picture on the little train. lol

This peacock stole Eliza's spoon for her ice cream.  Such a mean bird. 

I might have already posted this, but this was a Dogwood Canyon. Eliza complained for 5 hours straight and then asked to go back a month later. I give up!

Bentonville splash pad is always fun. 

The girls first visit to Krispy Kreme, I don't know what took us so long. 

Ahh the unicorn sprinkler. They played with this once for 5 minutes.  I bought this and totally forgot that we have real lawn sprinklers to play in.  This was a fail, I am probably going to sell it or something. lol

Lots of time for crafts!

Ever's first clover necklace. 

Trips to the Lake in Bella Vista. We don't go back very often because Ever drinks too much water and is going to catch something.  

Ever loves to do hair. 

Chris Stapleton concert, we had a lot of fun. 

These girls and their backpacks, I tell you what. 

New playground was so much fun. 

Father's Day!

Sidewalk chalk on the fence. lol

These cookies had plenty of sprinkles. 

We might look a little alike. 

Ever had her little toes painted for the first time. 

They love discovering new playgrounds. 

Pretty girl, with pretty flowers. 

Ok, so Eliza had two swimming sessions (10 days total) and refused to even get her hair wet.  Dan took her alone on day 9 and she was doing this.  I guess I should have made him take her everyday.  I couldn't believe it. lol

This was at Terra Studios, where they make the Blue Bird of Happiness. I got one for each of us.  It is a lovely place and the girls had fun.

Cute girl

These two crack me up. Ever will not be a pushover. 

We are having a blast, but I am looking forward to Eliza getting back to school next week.  She loves it so much and misses her friends.
