Great Wolf Lodge for Joy's Birthday

Another year...in lieu of a birthday party. The kids were so much more independent this year! They could go about the water park on their own, although Daddy spent lots of water slide time with them and Mommy was on snake pool and lazy river duty. Paul went about the lodge on his own playing the Magiquest game, Joy and I followed him about a good bit. He was so into it, but we're glad we waited until this year to spend all the money on it.

Violet put Joys birthday ears on her nose.

Joy Crafting

Joy has been having fun crafting up a storm lately, she made herself this "Indian" outfit.

Party at Daddy's Workout Place

There was a grand opening party at the gym where Shawn goes to train with Craig.

A party where Shawn socializes and I get to go on the treadmill and exercise bike is my kind of party.

Assisted pull up machine is the BEST!!!!

Paul's First Baseball Game

Paul's first game was in Avella. He looked awesome. He got a hit on his very first try and hit every time he was up at bat. He paid attention really well when fielding and showed good hustle. We were very proud of him.

Joy discovered the joys of the concession stand!

Car Accident

I was rear ended at the stoplight by the BP. That was me taking a picture of the car that hit me as he left the parking lot. So, so thankful that no one was hurt and only minimal damage was done to the car.

Trip to Green Valley

Shawn and I thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Green Valley again this year. Again it was too short, it was over in the blink of an eye. We didn't take pictures. I just took this one of the pretty spiderwebs when I was out for a run with Cana. Cana and I had two awesome 4 mile runs while we were there!
