On matching.

So here's me owning something.  I stink at making regular blog posts.  I try so very hard to make a post every week but now I've slipped into once monthly posts.  There it is.    Moving on to cute kiddos etc...

Out on the town after a wedding.  We had a blast with Ben and Karolyn going "out" after a reception.  Joey wore scrubs.  Keepin it classy :)

In the words of Diana, "Supa cute" Violet.

 Grandpa's Birthday party. Violet's big toe. The whole gang's here.

 Some niece/uncle time at the zoo.

 All of "our" girlies for a few weeks.  We had exercise clothes day, tutu day, red/white/blue day, and many more coordinating outfit days.  It is really fun to dress girls :)

 Look at 'em, they're naturals.

 Happy 4th of July!  (notice coordinating outfits again)

 Our goodbye photo session with Tessa.  She spent two weeks living with us and we had a wonderful time.  The goodbye was long and drawn out for me, slightly emotional (for both of us), and then we walked 6 seconds through the backyards to bring her home :)  And then we saw her again the next day.  Seriously though it was great to have her!

 This was supposed to be them hugging her goodbye.

 Here's my Di dressing herself.  Love her.

 Zoo day where Tessa and Violet matched and Marcy and Diana matched.

 Note the Diana monkey placard.

 Two hot, sweaty, full, and happy girls.  LOVE zoo trips!

Katydid :) Actually Katiedid

We got to enjoy Katie's graduation this weekend.  I think I can speak for all of us and say a huge, "woohoo you did it, we're so proud of you".  Katie (married to brother Karl) graduated from Trinity Christian College with honors and a degree, maybe even two, I'm not sure.  We're excited to see how God leads them now that they're both out of school and ready to tak eon the world (?).

 EVERYONE is excited that AUnti Marilyn and Cuzin Jamie came to visit :)

 We're putting in a patio...I have to trust that it will look worse before it'll look better.  If its any indication of how GREAT it will look when its done, it looks horrible right now!

 On the plus side the girls LOVE the mountain in our yard :)

 LIttle play date with some cuties

 Opa appreciation day

 Check out these great ones--pretty funny

 Sweet huh!

 They love all being in the bath together. Plus it expedites the process to get 'em all done at once.
