Uncle Jonny!!!

 Wow, i'm really behind in my blogging! Sorry Folks...

You'll be excited to know that we had our first official visitor a few weeks ago!! We were so happy to have Uncle Jonny Bro come visit! We had a blast!

We went to lunch at our favorite: Panera ... Mmmm!

 Jonny snuggled with Brin and Pepper...

We took a hike up to the RED ROCKS theater... and i say hike, because there were like a bazillion stairs! but it was SO worth it... and what a view!!!

Daddy and Brinley at the top!

B looking down at the stairs

Mommy wins the Awesome Mommy award for carrying Brinley up ALL THOSE STAIRS!!! 
(I'm so great!)

Thanks for coming to visit, Joggy! We love you! 

Precious Memories...

Almost 3 years ago, my sister-in-law Lindsey gave us this darling scrapbook to record our memories of our adventures in Virginia! I LOVE small scrapbooks like this that are perfect for a small coffee table or mantel decoration. Last week i spent a few days adding the final pages to our Virginia chapter... (sigh)

I don't even know where to begin... (and crying doesn't help.) But i do know that

I'm SO grateful for the short time we spent in Virginia! We are changed for the better! and I'll forever be grateful to the people who crossed our paths and made our days brighter...

.... and here are a few pictures from another book from my BEST friends... Man, we sure knew how to have a good time! Love and MISS my girlies!

...Thank you, Virginia!!

Chuck E Cheeses

Labor Day we took the kids to Chuck E Cheeses to celebrate Brinley's success in potty training! It was what motivated her to leave the diapers in the past... and for that reason, i LOVE this place!

Yeeee-hawwww! Livin' the dream at Chuck E Cheeses!
