Jump up, jump up and get down!

They jump in the morning, they jump in the afternoon, they jump by themselves and they jump all together...these 3 can't get enough of the new "babysitter" and I can't believe it took us so long to get one.  If you haven't made the plunge yet, call right now...YOU WON'T BE SORRY!!!

My little helper bringing lunch with me to the Bothell Police Department thanking them for all they do!


Cheers...it's Taco night with this guy!!! We wrapped up Tuesday "date my kid" night as the school year ended, but I know we will be back at it in September!! Such a fun night to unwind with 1 kid and have that special time we all crave!

Seems like a great place to hang with friends?!?!

The last week of school brought about a mama who was a little burnt out and said YES to take out and a park on a Monday!

Even when I don't see it, You're workin'
Even when I don't feel it, You're workin'
You never stop, You never stop workin'
You never stop, Jesus You are
 So proud of these boys...they pushed themselves into advanced math and rocked it!!!
 
1st grade party at Stipek!


Millie hanging with Mrs. Shilley.  This girl is going to miss the special hugs and love, but I know she will always have a special place for her.


This is what our mornings look like...I love that we make time for cuddles in the morning!

Almost the LAST day....and it was the last day of UNIFORMS!!!!



Last chapel...wow, HCA!!! You did it.  We did it. AMEN!!!! There was not a dry eye at chapel and I am so proud of this amazing community.  What a blessing that our kids get to worship with their friends and grow with God!!!


Last day FUN...the rain didn't stop this parade!




Saturday morning SNUGGLES!!!

And off to run some errands and work on "Backyard Revamp 2021"!

With a fun stop at the park too!!! These kids were troopers with all the errands!

Starting summer break with another trip to the eye doctor. So thankful for the advances here and working with Griffin to help him have an amazing experience.

Can't forget about this guy...he's my partner in crime when I work from home or when I try to sneak some quiet time reading on the patio.

Who has a summer birthday and gets to celebrate for over a WHOLE week?!?!  Oh Millie, how are you almost 7.  You are such a special little sparkler and I couldn't love you more than I do.

1st party was celebrating with family before vacations separated us all for week!!!

Special smiles with Auntie Roxy and GG!




Cousin TIME!


All the hugs for Grammy!


Papa too!


Oh, if pictures could talk....

So much fun celebrating with the family!


Selfies with Aunt Jenn <3

Next up...Friend Party Friday!!!


These girls ran wild and had a blast in the sun and fun!  So fun to see Millie grow with these girls this year at HCA and can't wait to see their friendships blossom in the years to come.




We call this "supervisor" duty.

My little turkeys!!!

Big WISHES Millie...the WORLD is yours!


All the summer fun...and Saturday was no exception!  BBQ with the "O'Staceys" and realizing it had been TOOOOOO long!

LJ trying to show E her new trick...he wasn't impressed.


The Meyer kids meeting Baby F. 

Oh this gang...so fun!!!






And then it was Father's Day...and Rich was off for early morning fishing with Adam.

Well done DADS....FISH ON!


The kids and I met up for our Father's Day brunch and fishing and to spoil Yah-ya.



And then June was closing in and we were ready to hit the lake to end the month with a BANG...but not before a week of soccer camp and some summer fun!

That's almost a wrap JUNE....we are off to the lake to unplug and this family can't wait for it!!!  2021 has been a year filled with many blessings and I am so grateful for so many things...a year of in person learning, a new church home, friends who have become family, family who have been supportive through a crazy year and TIME, so much time to reflect on our blessings!!!
