Crystina goes to Kindergarten!!

Crystina started kindergarten today!  She was SO excited!

This mama didn't shed a tear because Ethan shed enough tears for the both of us!!  : )

Can't wait to go pick her up and hear all about her day......

Beach vacation...

In July we spent a week at the beach, our favorite vacation spot!  Here are a few pictures....

Just like mama...

After washing her hair, Crystina wanted it "up," just like mama!

Doesn't she look SO cute??!!?!

Wordless Wednesday...

There's SO much LOVE between these two!!

Picking strawberries...

We had SO much fun picking strawberries on Saturday!! We picked 7 lbs. worth...I guess we'll be eating strawberries for awhile. : )

Merry Christmas!!

Merry Christmas...

...from our family to yours!

I'm thankful for...

At school Crystina was asked what she is thankful for....

Isn't it sweet?? My thoughtful girl ADORES her brother! And vice-versa...

They play and get along really well...they also love to hug each other, especially before bed time. Don't get me wrong...they FIGHT like cats & dogs. But the way they get along is......well PRICELESS.
