Carpenters in training

The fence continues to go up!! Hooray!!

These two little girls were very eager to help hammer away...

Ellie found out quickly that it's much easier than it looks.

Annie had to focus very hard...

And then had to have a little help from dad :)

Let's Play!

Last week we visited the new Lets Play. 

It's a indoor playground and the girls thought it was the best thing ever!

Annie was a little hesitant at first...

But after 3 hours there she loved it!

Ellie the fearless loved every.single.second.

We went with friends so that made it even more fun 😍

A visit to Nanny Mommys

Last week when Ellie was at VBS annie and I went to visit nanny mommy for the evening. 

We had a good visit and Annie was excited to have the kittens all to herself :)

Movies with cousins

Tuesday we went to the Summer Movies with our cousins. 

It's always a fun time and a good excuse to eat lots of candy :)

Our next request for the movies by Annie...is the Minion Movie :)

Long. Night.

These girls had a spend the night party with their Aunt Emi on Friday night. 

They had big plans for all the fun they were going to have. 

I pretty sure they lived it up with her because this happened before noon...

Ellie hardly EVER naps anymore. It's like she fights it with all she has...so she must have been exhausted. 

And this happened not long after...

Annie is a big napper but to fall asleep like this...it must have been a long night :)

Thanks Aunt Emi for wearing our kids out :)

Decision, Decisions

We are on the search for bunk beds for the girls and I am having the hardest time trying to decide on one. The only specifications E has is that it be white because the others look like "boys beds" I thought first that I just wanted the typical ladder bunk...

But the more I look at them I am liking the stairs. 

It seems so much easier for them to get up and down with them being little.

The big downside though is that most of these do not separate into seperate beds which is something that I think we would use in the future. Ellie finds it impossible to believe that we would ever want to take it apart :) 

So with this in mind my indecisiveness continues...

Last week.

Last week was pretty uneventful. 

We spent the week trying to recover from 8 days of vacation.. And let me tell you that isn't easy :)

The girls we so excited to be home and play with all their toys. 

I was happy to be home to sleep in my own bed :)

We did manage to do a few things...

We picked some blueberries from our favorite blueberry farm.

This was out first time there this year and we timed this visit perfect. 

You were able to just reach up and grab a handful of large, juicy berries...

In pretty sure the girls ate over half of what they picked :)

We had a tea party breakfast...

Ellie set the whole thing up by herself... Which is why their snack is cherry tomotoes 

And we visited the waterfall and park with our friend Kim and Hunter.

It was great to finally see them and hang out!

Ellie and Hunter are so sweet playing together I wish we could see them much more often.

And last but not least we did some much needed yard work. 

I don't have picture (yet) but Matt is putting up a fence in the back yard and I could be more excited. One side is complete and the other side is started...hooray!!
