How about an epic game of catch up?!

I don't know how to back track from MARCH!? But I will try.....

April we had family picks from our good family friend, Natalie Ingle, who i have known for 33 years!
And summer brought lots of travel and fun with family and lots of miles.

To Georgia for a blue grass fest with Nana and Grandpa Charlie. It was awesome but apparently we had to much beer to take any photos. Here is a blurry selfie of us and  our sober driver ....

North Fork with Grandpa Craig and Aunt Em

Delaware with the Stokes and Livingston family....

And Thailand to see Brent and Tun....that warrants its own post. Im sure Ill get to it in 6 months or so...



Ruby is 2!!! And oh my goodness is she the sweetest! She is full of cuddles and "I love yous" and "hi" to every stranger on the street. She breaks hearts and has made us lots of friends in our new neighborhood. ( great birthday pics from uncle matt!)

Some favorite Ruby words

Me Mo = Tomatoe

Wee = Playground  (as in weeeee in the swings)

Happy= Icecream

MeMe= Charlie
Screams.."Here comes Poopy" Well, right before

And Charlie just turned 5! Holy cow, how did that happen? We celebrated with a rainbow fiesta. Josh made Pizole and we had a boat load of kids and grownups and sangria.  Charlie is such a character. Full of life and love and deep emotions ( in all directions:) She is funny, fiercely creative, goofy and pretty sweet.

Oh and she started KINDERGARTEN! That pic first and then party pics...

Ru Ba

Ruby saying her name. "Ru Ba." The "Ru" is a little more silent but it is there if you listen verrry closely. Oh she is yummy!

"Chocolate Hair"

Holy cow are we over due for an update! Dang house!
More to come.. like xmas- geez. But for now this is a new fav. It pretty much sums up Charlie Mae.
