7 Years!

Here are just some pictures I found quickly of ourselves over the years. Its been an amazing life as husband and wife so far! We have obviously expanded our family and I can't wait to see what else is in store for us in the future! Thanks for being a fantastic husband to me and daddy to our 3 beautiful kiddos, I love you!

3 Months and a recap

Well Mr. T, as we like to call him, turned 3 months old today and insert broken record here....wow has time flown. He has really started showing off a smiley personality in the last month and we love it! He especially responds to his sisters and seems to look for them when its quiet. Haha! So here are a few pictures of him and then a video of our trip to MN. 

We started it out by heading up north to our annual family reunion with Josh's moms' side at Whippoorwill Resort, where we finally got to meet Molly and Elden's baby girl Nora! We also had Torsten baptized in Upper Bottle Lake. The weather was wonderful for our week up there. Then Josh headed back to California for a week and a half and the kids and I just hung out with my parents and then my brother Jeff, Angelie and Petra came into town so we got to hang out with them for a while and then up to my parents cabin and Josh met us up there for the 4th of July. Gretta and Maggie made leaps and bounds in the water department this year. They were little fish learning new tricks, so fun to watch!

MN Nice

Back from our 3+ week trip to MN and I just uploaded pictures today....there are about 1000, I wish I was kidding. So bear with me while I sort through them and I will possibly put together a little video of the trip since so much happened and there are obviously so many pictures! 

For now, here are a few phone pics to tide you over!
