A Moment of Reflection...


Two years ago today Austin and I began seeing each other!  I remember from the moment he walked up to me just feeling like we picked up right where we left off nearly 10 years ago!  From that moment we have spent nearly all of our time together making memories that will last a lifetime!  I never thought I could be so happy or be with someone that gets me like Austin does.  As I think back over the last two years and all that we have accomplished, I am not only thankful but excited to see what the future holds!

Chicken Dance!


Claire and her classmates ending dance class with a cheer!

Saturday morning we took Claire to her tap, ballet, and gymnastics class!  She is picking it up so quickly and it is just so cute I can't help but share it with you all!  This video is of Claire and her class doing the chicken dance, I hope you all enjoy it as much as we do!

Garden Update!

We planted our garden toward the end of March and in a little over a month we have shown great results!  This has been such a fun project, I can't thank Austin enough for helping me as much as he has! 

Our little garden is growing, we expanded a touch by adding pumpkin, gourds, cantaloupe, watermelons, and sunflowers!  Austin, is quite the gardener, he made a drip system so that way our plants will get the perfect amount of water!  I swear there isn't anything he can't do!


Our little Angel!


It sure didn't take her long to get the hang of things! 


This Saturday was Claire's first Tap, Ballet, and Gymnastics class at The Little Gym in Eagle!  She had so much fun and according to Claire the best part was the "balance thing" (balance beam) in gymnastics!  She picked everything up very quickly, I don't think I have ever seen anything so cute! 


Claire has two more weeks of Tap and Ballet combined with the gymnastics class and then we start the summer schedule which consists of 11 weeks of gymnastics! 


One of the best parts about getting Claire involved with the dance/gymnastics classes are that they focus on numbers with basic math and counting!  She will be all set this fall when Kindergarten starts! 


Our little gymnast! 


What a fun morning this was, I can't wait for class next week!

Zoo Day!


The weather finally has warmed up enough to enjoy our weekend outside!  Saturday Austin, Claire and I went to the Boise Zoo!  The latest exhibit is the Jellyfish exhibit, although it was small it was still pretty cool! 
 Our Little Turtle! 


Claire took this one, she always enjoys seeing all the animals!

Family Night at Big Al's

Monday night was family night at Big Al's!  We started the evening with a delicious dinner and then on to bowling!  We teamed up... Kent, Melody, Austin, and I versus Meghan, Tony, Kameron, and Lindsey and as you can see we were victorious!  It was such a fun night, we couldn't have enjoyed ourselves more! 

Austin held a strong score the entire night!

I couldn't believe the strength behind Kent's throw... Even the pins on the opposite side of where his ball was seem to tip over due to the sheer velocity of his throw, it was incredible! 
It sure was fun getting together, it was even more fun because we won!  Thank you so much Kent and Melody for such a wonderful experience! 

Hawaii Part II


 I found a few more photos on Austin's phone that I just had to share!  This was so awesome, we were walking the boardwalk in Waikiki and there were two guys that suddenly walked up to us and before we knew it we were holding several of these beauties!  Every time I think about this vacation I can't stop smiling, we can't wait to go back! 




Our vacation was coming to an end and having the ability to go sailing was the perfect cap to a perfect week.  It really did feel like we were able to do everything we wanted to, Many thanks again to Ryan and Courtney for making our vacation such a blast! 
I love this guy!
