Hidden Treasure

We were looking through our different mobile devices and found some gems that we thought we would share with you all.  Hope you enjoy!

This one is of Luke retiring his sippy cup on his birthday.

Brad finally able to blow up a balloon.

Baby Jane sleeping and acting funny.

Sadie Lady

Please meet the newest member of our family, Sadie. Daniel and I have been taking about getting a dog since before we were married. I remember when we were dating we would find puppies for sale and "shop." But with one of us in school and one of us working the entire time we've been married it's been hard to find a good time to raise a puppy. But now that Daniel is working and I'm staying home we took the plunge!!!

Sadie is a pure breed Boxer, 9 weeks old. We thought she'd be more feisty but all she really does is cuddle, sleep and pee on my carpet (we need to work on that last part). But already we love her so much! Yes, it will be a lot of work but I'm up for the challenge :)

Check out our sweet baby....Miss Sadie

Luke...May the Force be with you

For those of you who didn't know, my brother Jason and his family live outside of Detroit, MI which is only a quick 2 hour drive away from Grand Rapids where we live! It's the closest we've lived to family in a looooong time! So the upside is we can get together for family birthdays! This past weekend was my nephew Luke's 7th birthday. We celebrated with games and laser tag at Zap Zone. 

My birthday present to Luke was making his cake! He's way into Star Wars right now so I thought it fitting to make him a Star Wars cake and I LOVED making it. It's so much fun to plan what you want to do, put it all together and see the final product. I can't wait to practice more now that I have more free time on my hands! P.S. those are light sabers criss-crossed on the front lol

Overall it was a great weekend. I love being able to see the kiddo's and hangout with Jason and Margene. I anticipate more family gatherings in our future here in Michigan :)
