Showered with Love

My Aunt threw us an amazing baby shower on Saturday.  It was a perfect day with family and friends and Kevin's Mom being here for the occasion was icing on the cake.  Below are a few pictures from the afternoon.

Thank you to everyone who came and made this day so special for us; you spoiled us with so many special gifts that we will treasure for years to come.  Lucy, the shower was beautiful; you really outdid yourself this time!!  Thank you everyone- we love you so much.


Lucy created a "rock a bye baby on the tree top" theme for our shower and decorated these branches full of bibs, socks, little shoes, hair clips, and teethers, then used receiving blankets as the napkins to cover the rolls- so creative!!  AND we got to keep it all- lucky us!!


From Grandpa- of course  ;)

Quilt made by Kevin's cousin Callie.  She stole the show with this beautiful keepsake!!

Minnie

I knew this would be a hard post to write, so I've been putting it off. On Monday morning, we said goodbye to Minnie. After months of weight loss I brought her into the vet early this week.    I had been noticing the weight loss, but it wasn't until a few weeks ago that I started to see how skinny and malnourished she was getting. The vet determined she was suffering from late-stage hyperthyroidism and her kidneys were shutting down.  It was a painful assessment; why I didn't notice it earlier and help her?  That thought still haunts me. But at 11am on Monday morning, through a mountain of tears, regret, and sorrow, I bid farewell to the most loyal friend I've ever known. Minnie,  You were the first piece to my "own" family.  I remember vividly the day I got you.  It was my 21st birthday and Rebecca and Steph came over bearing a gift (more specifically, a brown grocery bag).  I opened it and looked inside; there you were,...

Lake Wenatchee

Happy Birthday, Kevin! We spent an awesome 4 days on Lake Wenatchee this past weekend; relaxing by the lake, (attempting) to fish, playing in the water, and enjoying quality time together as a family.  Our parents joined us on Saturday afternoon to celebrate Kevin's birthday; a wonderful day full of family, food, and the great outdoors. Weekend highlights include Fish Lake on Friday (Abigail and i will not be invited back for the next fishing adventure...we may have mangled the line more than once), a trip into Leavenworth for pizza and dancing at the gazebo, a steak feast for Kevin's birthday, and relaxing by the bonfire that evening. Here are some pictures of our trip. Friday at Fish Lake "helping" Dad with his tackle While Kevin fished, Abigail and I fed Parmesan garlic pita chips to the ducks. At one point, we had a crowd of 10! Ladies of leisure on the lake  :) This sums up our fishing experience... Thursday evening f...
