Swim Time !!

I think Mitchells absolute favorite thing to do is swim. Last week we were able to get together with some friends and the Three Amigos were back together. His friends Jayden and Ellis are very close and age and it is soooo cute to see them together. They love each other and get along great!! We are in trouble when they get older.

Mitchell is used to spraying the water hose at the house he couldn't understand why it wasn't spraying water.

Trying to get Jayden with the imaginary water!

He did a great job of climbing up to the slide. I was right behind him. He wanted to do it all by himself.

Date Night!!

Gamma and Pap Pap watched Mitchell, so Kenneth and I could meet up with his family. Mitchell jumped on the trampoline and almost gave Gamma a heart attack while we had nice relaxing dinner with Uncle Robert, Aunt Joyce, Amy and Robby. Thanks Uncle Robert for dinner!!!

It is always nice to spend time with family.... we don't see them enough. We missed Mitchell, but did not miss chasing him around the restaurant.

Happy Birthday Zachary and Hayden!!

Wow, How time has flown. Hayden is 6 and Zachary is 4....Crazy. I was able to make it to their joint birthday this year and was happy that I could see them open their presents and have cake.

They had a blast!!

Stairs...oh how I love thee!

I think there is something about stairs that attracts all kids.
Or maybe it is because Mitchell does not have any at the house, that he forever wants to be on them when we go someplace that has them. My brother had a get together to Grand Open his new back patio...which is amazing...and of course I forgot to take a picture.....but while everyone was outside enjoying that...Mitchell wanted to climb the stairs.
Maybe he will out grow them by the time we move and have stairs at our new house.

He also enjoyed playing and dumping all of Ansyns toys on the ground.

Precious Angel

Kenneth and I talk all the time about how Mitchell has completely changed our lives. Nothing else matters when he is around. He is such a blessing and we can not explain how much we love him. I know all the other parents reading this feel the same way about their children. When life gets tough and things don't go great....Mitchell is all we need. He is an Angel sent here to make our lives better.

Family Pictures

About a month ago we had some family pictures taken by a photographer in Flower Mound. (Natalie Knabe) She did a great job and wanted to share some of the proofs.

Fourth of July

We had a great time traveling to visit Aunt Joyce and Uncle Robert at their beautiful lake house. Thank you very much for the invite. It was very nice to see family and we had such a great time. Mitchell wanted to play outside the entire time and Kenneth and I were completely exhausted. I took Mitchell on the boat and he loved it....was not scared a bit. He is our little water bug. We try to swim in the pool as much as possible.

Hope you enjoy the pictures. They are from the whole weekend not just at the lake house!
