Raegan turns 3!

 

Wait, what did that say??  Raegan turned 3!  Our baby is THREE!!!  Where has the time gone!!!

 

 

Started the day off getting fun donuts from our favorite donut place!

 

And of course ended the day with dinner and presents!!!

 

This girl is just too darn cute!  That dimple gets me every time!  She is smart, independent, independent, and smart!  She is also a great cuddler, and loves playing with her babies!!!  She has a lot of great things ahead of her!!!  Can't wait to see her grow and turn in to a little lady!

Bike ridin'

With our new house being on a cul-de-sac, we find ourselves outside riding our bikes pretty often! 

 

Jamison and Raegan love their new bikes!

Once Brooklyn was brave enough to try riding her bike without training wheels, she took off fast.  I think one day of help, and then she was off!  Now she is unstoppable!!

 This girl may be little, but she can pedal faster and harder than anyone!  She  is a little go-getter!!

Loving life outside on our new street!  Now if it just wasn't so darn hot!!!

Moving- fav pic

These pics were taken June 6th on my cell phone!  I love this pic for a lot of reasons---one, this was taken the day we moved out of our old house!  And technically we were homeless!  Mom and Julie were here, and our official residence was Embassy Suites!   We had went out to eat with Mom at Dilly Delly in downtown Tulsa, and took this pic!  Aren't they cute, and don't they really look like they love each other!!  But I also love that we were truly living in the moment during this time!  We had no idea what tomorrow held as far as our living situation, didn't have plans for our next meal, but we were still smiling!    (Yes, partly because we were staying somewhere with a pool, and a full breakfast buffet :)).    Gosh I just love these cute kids!!!!!

 

Iowa wrap up

One of our last days in Iowa we went to see the trains that are by the Botanical Gardens.  Good little adventure!

And of course more photo opps!

 

We had a great time in Iowa!  It is always great seeing so many family members and friends, and for mom to get her small town fix and for dad and the kids to see where Mom spent the first 18 years of her life!   Wish we could get back more often!!  Until next time..... GO HAWKS!

A couple of then and nows....

The 4th on the Farm

We went out to the farm for the 4th of July to look around on the farm and have a good ol' family Fourth of July picnic!

 

We started off on the combine!

Then went to the tractor

Then a forklift:

Even got to get in a semi!

 They had a calf that was being bottle fed so it was in the barn separate from the rest of the cows, so we got to get really close!

And we got to see some of the big cows too!

 

 Brooklyn wanted to see how big the hay bales were, she couldn't believe those things you see from way far away were that big!

  Got to see how tall the corn was!

The kids loved the cake pops, and I love their faces in the next few pics HAHAHAH!!

 

Grandma Bev with all four of her kid!

Grandma Bev with all of her grandkids that were there!

The whole bunch!

Raegan and Meagan.  We have a pic like this from two years ago too!  Meagan just graduated high school and will be going to KU and is going to be on the dance team there!

 Great Grandma with her Great Grand Kids!

 Although we didn't get to stay real long, we had a really nice picnic lunch.  We sat outside in the shade, and it was so nice!!  It was a great day in our red white and blue.  So glad we got to see some family that we don't see very often!
