apologies, and catching up

Ok, I've been the worst blogger EVER. I know, I know. Sorry to the 3 people out there who actually read my blog. I will update just for YOU and for you only. Because you are people I love. And because my kids are really really cute and I want to show them off. Ok, now let's catch up!

Evie turns 5. My parents and nephew came out to celebrate her birthday. Can I add she is the cutest 5 year old in the universe?

Beautiful Veda on her first day of second grade.

And this one was the toughy - my little Eve starting kindergarten! Can you tell she was a little excited? Where I was holding back the tears (unsuccessfully) she was beaming from ear to ear.

It's hard to believe we spent 2 weeks in Las Vegas and Utah and these pictures are all I have to prove it. Despite that, we had a splendid time and got to see lots of family and friends. The cousin time was the best!

We got to see my rockstar nephew Liam compete in a swim meet. He killed it in the backstroke and won his heat. The girls wanted pictures with him like he was a celebrity! Go Liam!

Brawk!

Last day of preschool

After months of anticipation and counting down of days my brother and his family came to visit.

The girls were bribed with ice cream for breakfast if they slept in until 8:30. Not the best parenting approach, but at least we got some sleep.

You can't have a house full of girls without a spa day.
A night out for us thanks to our friends M and B for staying with the kids.
I love this guy. Thanks for coming!!
