Until We Meet Again Tutu… Until We Meet Again.

We love you Tutu.

 

 

Longboarding May 7th, 2014

So Enoch is a worry wort, Travis is cautious, and Gwen throws caution to the wind. She is such a brave little person compared to her big brothers. I’m hoping their extreme caution will help her be a little more careful in the future when they’re older. She’s much more of a climber than the two boys ever were, and she just loves the thrill of Daddy tossing her in the air as high as he can, running around the house chasing the boys, climbing the slide in the backyard, and of course long boarding with Dad!! She just giggled, and laughed, and demanded to go AGAIN!!!

This was a fun afternoon for her!

And I think Joe enjoyed the long board time he got too. One of his favorite hobbies. The boys liked chasing Dad up and down the street.

Gwen loves tubby time

So our car was starting to sound ridiculously loud and we couldn’t figure out why for so long until I YouTube’d the sound it was making. Found out, the bearings were shot. Called up Toyota to see how much it would cost to replace them both – $1,200!!! No thank you!! We purchased the parts for $30 and Joe borrowed some tools from our neighbor Richard, who is a wonderful man, and had the bearings replaced in one afternoon. After that, the car drove like butter and was SO much quieter! I fell in love with our little car all over again. I feel so blessed to be married to a man that knows his way around cars, building, homes, repairing pretty much anything and just being plain handy! Love JOE!

This little girls popped up in our backyard and caught me by surprise! I love flowers! Especially flowers that are a complete surprise to me!

She was patiently waiting for her mac & cheese from Dad.

This little girl, so ready for summer!! And looking so grown up! Such a cutie!

Whenever we visit the park, she plays in the rocks or the wood chips, whichever the current park has. She just loves to feel things in her hands.

She loves to swing!

We almost couldn’t get Travis out of this baby swing!

While Enoch is at lacrosse practice, we like to occupy the local playgrounds. Keeps us entertained.

The gorgeous sunset on the way home from practice in Murphy Creek.

Gwen & Mom selfie!

She found a pot and decided to sit in it.

Heading to lacrosse practice!

Another gorgeous sunset after practice

Gwen and I had been sick for a week so we were snuggle buddies.

I have just adored having lilac bushes in our yard! This one is just outside the kitchen window and I love leaving the window open so the aroma comes in. Love it!

Travis needs goggles to eat dirt cake, obviously.

Travis moved their chairs so they both could watch the iPad together.

Gorgeous lilacs!

These cute little things popped up in the yard and we have no idea what they are! They’re cute though!

I still love it when she falls asleep on me.

And the boys too!

Travis wore this for Cinco De Mayo! He’s so funny!

And the next day too. Just couldn’t let go.
