The girls were so excited to bring their spotlights to school for their birthday week! It was a lot of fun to go through old pictures with them and help them pick out what they wanted to put on their posters.
My girls are seven. I can't even believe it! They were pretty happy with their gifts, I think! They both got a new set of books. Alya got one about unicorns, and Lyla got on about dinosaurs. She also got a t-shirt with her favorite dinsosaur - a Troodon - on it. It's getting fun to buy them gifts as they are both figuring out the things that they like, we have been able to start to personalize their gifts a little big more!
Lyla asked for a wolf cake for her birthday...
...and Alya asked for a fox cake.
I love these pictures of her blowing out her candles! That prep!!!
Alya was given a cute little leotard as one of her gifts! And she got to start her first day of ballet on the same day as her birthday! She was pretty excited, and I was a little surprised at how emotional I got watching her walk into that studio to do something she has been so excited about!
My little bike gang! We decided to hit up the park one day this week to let the boys race around the bike track.
Spiderman...obviously he would be crawling on top of the piano, right? // My little hillbilly trying to hold on to his toothpick!
This is about as much as we got from our garden this year...with the exception that we got about 10 more of those delicious little tomatoes and of course way too much squash and zucchini, and I was able to can a few pints of beans, but it was a pretty sad little garden. Hopefully next year we can get a little more luck!
We had a wildfire pretty close to home!
Matthew has his dream job, which allows him to be on the mountain every week taking care of some amazing property. The owners of the property let Matthew have one of their bull tags. I was pretty excited for him and I think he's pretty happy with this big boy!
It didn't score quite what he wanted it to, but he is a good looking bull if you ask me!
We went up to see my grandpa in his nursing home. He has been sick for a long time and he actually ended up getting Covid so we really thought we would be saying goodbye soon, so the boys and I headed up north after we dropped the girls off at school to go be with my dad and sisters. They ended up running to a gas station and they brought the boys back a super nasty sucker!! Axel thought it was pretty cool! // The boys and I met up with my cousin and her boys to go on a hike this week. The leaves are starting to change colors and it was absolutely beautiful!
Axel and Jax! // Eli and Mama!
We didn't make it to the end of the trail...one day I plan to! But the boys had a lot of fun just climbing on everything and probably went twice as far as Kass and I by the time they ran ahead of us and then came back to us and climbed on every climbable rock! // I didn't know this cute little boardwalk was up this canyon, but I'm glad we found it! It was so cute!
This is the cutest little bike gang I've ever seen!
