So much summer fun.... Lake Wilderness play dates, Lake Easton Camping, lots of trips to the falls, 4th of July picnics and don't forget the kick ball games!

This is what little boys are made of...... (check out those guns!!!)

And little girls.......... sugar and spice and everything nice!
 (Ya right! These three girls, all born within a year of each other, can get into worlds of trouble together!)

Gotta love cousins!


Townes just chillin in the shade!

Since so many of us were in town, my sisters and I decided to throw Kristina a baby shower for her soon to be here little boy, Miles. Audrey actually helped quite a bit, and was the one to pick the adorable theme.... "The Very Hungry Caterpillar."
Eric Carle's illustrations make it so easy to turn this beloved children's book into a celebration for welcoming a new nephew! (Thanks for giving us another excuse to throw a party Tina!)


Not a shabby spread for trying to incorporate all the random food items mentioned in the book.





Clear glass apothecary dishes made the food the decor as well. What could be better?!?


Those are hanging paper lanterns over the fireplace, with some embellishments.


The favors were cute packaged pip-n-fill sugar cookies.
Time consuming but worth it!



Instead of lame baby shower games, we had all the guests choose an image from the book to turn into a handmade onesie for baby Miles. Iron-on interfacing made it do-able, but the careful hand stitching around the simple images is what made it so adorable! 

Audrey's first 5K. (With her friend Mikayla).  She did so awesome at the Mill Creek 2012 "Run of the Mill."
I see track in our future..... Great job Audrey!



Another angle of the falls..... they don't take a bad photo! Seriously people, the Garden of Eden lives!
