Grandma and Grandma Moorefield

Yes, I do know that I titled this Grandma and Grandma. It was funny because Maya called Grandpa Grandma the whole time! Chad's dad and stepmom came to visit us last week. We all had such a great time!

We saw a pirate ship...

We went for bike rides to feed the ducks...(thanks to all my neighbors for letting us borrow bikes and trailers!)

We played on the slip and slide...

The boys had t-ball practice then ice cream afterwards...

We did a whole lot of playing outside and hanging around home. Grandma spent HOURS playing with boys and Maya. At one point the kids were downstairs with Grandma and when I went down to see what was going on Jack told me to go upstairs!

We ended their trip with a surprise birthday cake for Grandma. Then the boys got to open their birthday presents early since Grandma and Grandpa wouldn't be here for their special day.

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to all the daddies out there. We have had a good day start of the day. The kids woke daddy up to surprise him with a Superman card, candy and a new t-shirt. I took the kids to church and Chad picked them up after service. (I worked in the nursery for the first service so Chad picks them up so I can go to the second service.) When I came home from church Jack was complaining that his tummy hurt and got sick. So far he has thrown up in 4 different buckets! Poor guy. Maya's asleep and Chad's outside playing with Adam. Not sure what the rest of our day looks like, but I'm not expecting anything too exciting.

Harris Family! (30 photo's below...sorry!)

A couple of weeks ago my family and my brother's family all drove to Kalamazoo for my grandma Harris' 90th birthday. My dad also flew in from Kansas City. And, since my mom and her husband live there, it was a great time to get together and celebrate our grandma and our families. Thanks again, to my sister-in-law who took ALL of the pictures. Thanks, Mandy!!!

I'll break down my post by: family photo's, dinners, mom's farm and hotel...

Hotel fun!

Look who's a big girl!

Window Seat!

I love, love, LOVE, my new window seat! The kids love it, too. We can fit so many more people (kids) around the table now. I plan on eventually getting a custom cushion for the top of the bench, but for now I'll leave it.

So Excited!

OMgosh, my life has changed forever. Why, you wonder? Well, I finally hired a cleaning service! They (5 people) came yesterday and cleaned my house from top to bottom for 7 hours. That was the mac daddy clean and now they will come every other week to maintain what they did. It's amazing! My shower looks new, my light fixtures are crystal clean and walls/doors/baseboards that I thought needed painted don't....they just needed a good wipe down! It is worth every penny!

The other thing I am excited about is that my bench is finally done. I have wanted a custom built in bench in my bay window area in the kitchen forever. Chad finally agreed (after a year of persistence on my part) that I could go ahead and have it done. I bought a new kitchen table and chairs, too. I'll post pictures soon!

I will also post pictures of our trip to Michigan. My dad and brother and his family met us in Kalamazoo for my Grandma Harris' 90th birthday. Since my mom and her husband already live there, it was the perfect time for all of us to get together. I was in heaven seeing my two awesome nieces playing with my kids. It had been too long since we have all gotten together. Thankfully we are planning on a Thanksgiving gathering. I'll post pictures of our trip soon. My brothers wife, Mandy, took tons of great pictures. Thanks, Mandy!!!

Since the boys are out school, I signed them up for summer camp this week and next week. They go Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday from 9-12. They are having a lot of fun and coming home whipped! I'm glad I signed them up, but it will be nice to have our days completely free. I'm getting excited to start going to the YMCA pool, too. I loved taking the kids last summer and it was surprisingly easy to take all three. This year will be even more easier! Yay!
