Our 7th Anniversary

Scott and I celebrated our 7th Wedding Anniversary on June 21st. I can't believe how time flies! It seems like not long ago we were getting married on a day it poured rain ALL DAY...what a beautiful day it was. I would love to relive it for 1 day. And to think of how far we have come...with 2 amazing children, it's hard to imagine life any diffrent than it is now. I wouldn't trade it for anything! It was so nice to celebrate the day together on a sunny golf course and then we took the kids out for dinner and celebrated with our little family...a perfect day!!!

Love you honey!!

Sienna's 2nd Birthday

Some highlights of Sienna's 2nd Birthday.....lots of friends and family, a beautiful sunny day, a bouncer and playground for the kids and hot dogs and cake for everyone!!!

Our Little Soccer Star

Brody's first year of playing soccer! Personally I was very excited for this moment. Soccer runs in our blood since we are from Holland and I played it as a little girl myself as well as when I was older. Brody is 3 1/2, so some days he loves it and others he would rather pick the grass off the field...but as long as he has fun most of the time...I'm happy!!

He shoots....he scores!!!

And of course you always need your little sidekick cheering you on the sideline

GO BWODY GO!!

Lesson of the Day

" Lippy like Auntie Kara!"

A Weekend in Banff

We spent a nice weekend in Banff with great friends (and family). It was a nice little getaway from the city and fun for the kids too!

Sienna, Brody, Jadyn and Cameron strolling down Banff Ave...

The hotel had waterslides and an indoor playground. It was awesome!

Brody's first trip to the Dentist

Today was Brody's first trip to our dentist, Dr.Love. (i know it sounds more like he should be a marriage counselor, but he is a REALLY GOOD dentist) Mommy went first, so he had to be patient and wait for 45 minutes while I had my cleaning and check up. That way he could also 'check it out'. He was anxious to get in the chair when it was his turn...

(the pics are from my blackberry, so not great quality...) Good to Go!

He was opening his mouth like a dinosaur...his words...

He did awesome!! Listened very well and really liked the Dentist!
NO CAVITIES...and a new CARS toothbrush to take home, woohoo!!

Viva la Mexico!!

We just got back from Mexico last weekend...it was definitely a week in paradise! Scott's mom came with us as well and we all had an amazing time...how can you not with sun, sand and sea? The resort was awesome and there was lots to do with the kids. Brody and Sienna were swimming every day, playing at the resort's playground, and spending all their time with Nanny, Mommy and Daddy...can't wait to go again!!

Nanny and her grandbabies.

Me and my favorite man....

Brody was all about Nanny while she was here...he barely let her out of this sight!

The pool was definitely the favorite place to be!

Where's the beach?? Let's go!

Christmas is coming...

Brody and Sienna visiting with Santa...Brody was mesmerized, but Sienna was still a little iffy...next year she will be more excited I think....
Last weekend it was our turn to get into the Christmas spirit at the annual Husky Christmas Gala...we always look forward to it! We go with the Gale's and make it a family affair since 3 of us work there. It was fun as usual!!
