Father's Day

A very HAPPY FATHER'S DAY to my wonderful Dad!

And to the fabulous father of my beautiful girls!

One Final Birthday Surprise

And here they are with the bikes they picked out:

Even though Brenna didn't celebrate a birthday last week, we decided to let her in on the "new bike" fun. :)

Birthday Girl, Take 2

Kaylee's birthday was yesterday (June 7th), but Russ had to be in Houston until later into the evening, so we did most of our celebrating today.

The girls and I did take her to lunch at Olive Garden yesterday.

And she got to open one gift.

Her celebration day began with going out to breakfast with Dad.

And ended with playtime at Chuck E. Cheese, 

cake and ice cream, 

and more presents, which she neatly organized about as soon as she could get them unwrapped.

We feel so fortunate to have this obedient, intelligent, and wonderful girl in our family!!!

One Year Older . . .

Happy, Happy Birthday to our beautiful FIVE-YEAR-OLD, Ashlyn!!!

Russ had to go down to Houston for some training today, 

so we did a lot of our celebrating on Monday.

Out to breakfast with Dad in the morning.

Time for presents!

Ashlyn requested a "Star Wars" cake this year. 

We ADORE this little girl!!!

Woohoo!

So, after about a month of living in the "real world" (as opposed to the student world), we've decided . . . that it's AWESOME!!! They even pay you real money!!!
