Sterling graduated from Pre-School

This past Thursday Sterling graduated from his second year of pre-school. He loved his two years with Ms. Nicole. He also loved going with his best-buddy Tanner. He is excited to start kindergarten in the fall. He didn't think it was fair that Gabe went to school every day and he only went two days a week. I can't believe he is so big.

Maddi and McKay came to play!!!

My brother Graham's kids, Maddi (almost 3) and McKay (1) came over and played at our house this week. Graham and his wife are in Florida for the week. Sterling and Alicia waited at the window for over 1/2 hour for them to get to our house. The kids had so much fun together. Alicia and Maddi are seven months apart and play pretty good together. Maddi think's Sterling is just the coolest. I had so much fun with McKay. He's at such a fun age and is soooo lovable.

Asher just relaxed and watched the action when his cousins were over. He is the easiest baby ever!

Today we got grass in the backyard, YEAH!!! It is going to be so wonderful having the kids play in a fenced backyard. I can't wait. We get our cement patio done tomorrow thanks to Ryan's great brother, Nick. The kids had a blast playing outside today and they were VERY dirty.







Asher was his normal angel self today as always!



This week my Aunt Claire came by and took this adorable picture of Sterling and Alicia. It was so nice to see you Claire!
