Our Crazy Happy Life

Cheerleading

2015-10-13T22:23:00.001-03:00

I would say she is having fun cheerleading.... With her cheer bucket on her head 😂

Kids will be kids and I love that she can be one. There is plenty of time in life to be over focused.

Santa Rosa

2015-10-03T22:32:00.000-03:00

The beach was such a great time!! Bringing all my college friends with their kids made all our hearts smile. Seeing them crab hunt, sand castle build, water play, and just enjoy life had to be the highlight.

The three of us together as a family made all of Nates traveling days disappear. I hope to do this every couple of years 😳 we shall see!

NOLA

2015-09-28T12:08:00.001-03:00

Fast little weekend family trip to New Orleans and let's just say we are sort of glad to be heading out!! Despite how wonderful Isabelle is at eating in restaurants it still made for anxious parents and one too many questions about the surroundings.

Now we make our way along the coast and hopefully avoid the rain. To the beach!!

Fair Fun

2015-09-15T20:49:00.001-03:00

Little project I have been working on! Love that I can capture these images for her!! When she grows up I hope she cherishes them as much as I do.

First day of Pre-k

2015-09-03T13:39:00.000-03:00

I am so happy for her this week! She is loving class and school without tears or fears. May this year be a year of fun before the work of kindergarten begin. Walk tall little one!!

Zoo with Friends

2015-08-27T22:52:00.001-03:00

We have met such great friends that live in our neighborhood!! We traveled to the zoo and here are the girls together. Being girls and placing ownership over everything!

Tulsa

2015-08-23T22:45:00.001-03:00

I managed to take a few photos while visiting family very fast before school starts!! One more week of summer and then baby girl goes to preschool!!! I am so excited but will probably cry that day!

Stros!

2015-08-19T00:06:00.001-03:00

Go stros!!! Isabelle's second game to go to and of course she loved it!! She melts my heart for sure!

Maroon Bells

2015-07-15T17:47:00.001-03:00

We traveled to Maroon Bell peaks the other day! We had to take the bus and then we walked the three mile loop around the lake. It was relatively flat and Isabelle walked the whole time!! The site was beautiful and made for such a nice mom and daughter day!

Sara

Aspen Trip

2015-07-13T01:50:00.001-03:00

Isabelle and I are in Aspen with our good friend Cambrey and Ian! For those of you who don't remember Ian was born in Brazil too and I used to watch each week for a little while to help Cambrey out!!

No we are taking the littles to Colorado and just having fun. The weather rolling in from the mountains was an amazing view. Luckily we had zero problems getting here and now we can enjoy the cold weather and friendships! Let the hiking begin!!

Nana and Papas House

2015-06-29T20:56:00.001-03:00

Now we move onto the last week and we stay at Nanas and Papas house. We are having a blast with family and life is great. We wish Nate didn't have to work so hard and so much but things are going great for him so we cannot complain.

We will enjoy the week and all the time with family that we have!

Oklahoma time

2015-06-24T00:40:00.000-03:00

Family trip time to Oklahoma! First week the vacation starts out at camp Grandma with chickens, picnics, walks and the air and space museum. This is what summers are made off!

Next week we venture out to Nana's house where even more summer memories will take place!!

We sure do love our family time and cherish the time we have with each other. Love you all friends and family.

VBS

2015-06-18T20:38:00.001-03:00

Isabelle had VBS this week and the Methodist church. The theme was cute and I believe she had a good time! I couldn't extract any information from her at all. I guess I should just get used to it ;)

Deer Lease

2015-06-15T04:57:00.001-03:00

Nate and some coworkers found a piece of land to rent under contract for hunting and camping! 900 acres of secluded land available to us anytime and any day. We headed out to the land this past weekend and mapped it out on the new four wheeler 😳

It was such a fun day! We picked out the campsite and the boys found all the good spots to hunt. The kids even found a few good sticks to play in the dirt with and maybe a rock or two to throw. Cannot wait to start making memories here with all the kids and families together!!!

Sock Hop

2015-06-12T20:42:00.001-03:00

Daddy daughter dance at the church tonight! The theme was sock hop but I figure she would just have fun with dad!! So far I think it's going great and can't wait to hear the stories ;) such a little personality!

How you doin

2015-06-10T15:28:00.001-03:00

Isabelle is dead set on fishing with her dad! New shirt, pole and boots. This summer has proved to be such a great time together... Though we have had our moments I still feel like these are memories forever. Hopefully? Right! I can't imagine when she is older not remembering things when she was three.

I just look at her as so much older than she is right now. Well, off to the pool!!

Zoo time!

2015-06-06T00:36:00.001-03:00

It's the summer!!! Let the day trips begin and memories be made. Today was not a particularly great day... Turns out belle had a fever but we got time to snuggle and watch movies after the zoo 😉

Cannot complain about cuddling with my child that never slows down!!

End of the year

2015-05-29T21:03:00.001-03:00

Here are some things we have been up too!!

End of the school year party. Sushi dinner and practice with chopsticks. New toy for the family (four wheeler) and now we relax... Ya right!!

Doughnuts

2015-05-16T19:18:00.001-03:00

Friday morning date before her ENT follow apt from getting her tubes in her ears in February. Everything checked out great with her ears and we had a great breakfast! I love actually being able to have a conversation with her instead of just ordering around.

Outfits

2015-05-15T10:11:00.001-03:00

A few of the outfits belle comes up with ;) I love them!!!

Logo!!

2015-04-27T01:31:00.001-03:00

I have a new logo and I have been testing it out! Also testing new locations for pictures and using my kids as models :)

Ballet Photos

2015-04-21T16:31:00.001-03:00

Here is just a little preview of Isabelle in her recital costume and makeup! She had photos done :) she had so much fun with makeup and dressing up in her outfit!

I will post the actual photo once I get them. Her recital is actually May 23rd but maybe I will post a preview of the rehearsal. It's the cutest!

Garage sale!

2015-04-17T22:45:00.001-03:00

Isabelle is actually excited about getting rid of some of her stuff. She has already picked out, verbally, a princess Barbie castle with barbies... Not even sure it exists....

Now here's the chance for us to clean out more junk and really just be clean without clutter!! Last garage sale we got rid of large stuff and failed to clean out the small decor that matches nothing.

Obviously everything we don't sell goes to goodwill. Even then I feel like we should be donating everything instead of selling. Something that really troubles me but in the end we do donate so much. I just hate the way donations in America are used. Most of the time people just resell... Or they refuse the donation. So brings us straight back to garage sale!

Well here goes nothing!!! Still working away at the website and things are not perfect but I am trying!!! Most of the links work and it's only a matter of time before things are up and running.... Ok. Now I need to sit down before I pass out from fear!

Easter

2015-04-14T01:38:00.001-03:00

A few photos from Easter egg hunt on the Saturday before Easter. Plus some time with friends afterward! The only picture I got on Easter was the shot of us at lunch. Side view of Belle and a half a Nate ;)

I must say that we looked good and had such great weekend together as a family. In a few weeks it will mark our one year anniversary in the same town and same home! Things just can't get better and I cherish every moment!!
