Can you hear God?

Tonight while we were driving in the car, Layla decided that she needed to talk to God. "Hi God!" she said, then "I can hear him!" Then Rosanna said "You can't hear God" to which Layla replied: "Yes I can... if I am really quiet."

"Truly I tell you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God as a little child will never enter it." Mark 10:15

Birthday Girls



So yesterday was Layla's birthday... and mine! We had a lot of fun hanging out in the backyard with friends and family and eating chocolate cake. Every day I am still in shock that I am the mother of two beautiful girls, but I'm extremely thankful for it!


As a four year old, Layla has made several resolutions such as: stop sucking her thumb (first and foremost on both our minds!), buckling her own seatbelt in the car, and cleaning her room all by herself. We'll see how long it lasts!

Sidewalk chalk...

On Thursday, I had the day off, so the girls and I (and our friend Hanah) went to the store and got some sidewalk chalk to play with. Here are some of the pictures:

Fourth of July

Another Fourth of July has come and gone, and it was a great one! Rosanna stayed up late the night before to watch the weather on KMVT to make sure everything would go as planned. We were kind of worried when they said that it was supposed to rain, but thank goodness they were wrong! It turned out to be sunny and warm and we had a lot of fun playing in the pool at my parent's house, even Gunner got in and cooled off! One of the great things that I enjoy each holiday with my girls is watching them experience something new every year. Rosanna got to be more involved in lighting the fireworks this year(with Dad right there with her the whole time!). And Layla was in awe of all of the lights and sounds and even contributed some of her own sound effects during the show!

Nat Soo Pah




Today the girls and I went swimming with Grandma at Nat Soo Pah and had a lot of fun! Rosanna discovered the waterslide and probably would have stayed all day if I would have let her! As for Layla, she is fearless in the water, which scares me to death! Luckily she had her water wings on the whole time so she was able to keep her head above water.
