Well that was a sad post. Just reading that again brings tears to my eyes. What a trial! Thank you again for all of your prayers in my behalf. I know that is the only way I was able to get better. I ended up staying in the hospital for a week. My mom came out to take care of us (thanks again Mom!). Then a week later, we went out to Idaho for our yearly trip. I continued to rest and had lots of help with the kiddos.
So sit back and enjoy lots of pics of what has been happening in our lives.
While in Idaho, we enjoyed celebrating Mom's B-day!
Enjoying a bike ride and the river up at Island Park.
Sisters hanging out for the 4th of July!
Fireworks with Daddy.
We started Olivia on rice cereal and formula while I was in the hospital. She 'beefed up.' We love our chubba luvva! And she loves to go shopping!
We celebrated this cute guy's birthday!
Livvy will eat anything she is given. Enjoying a pear!
This is what she would look like if she was a boy. This was the only surviving thing from Kevin's childhood. His cute little outfit! Someday, I will have to scan in his pic wearing this...so cute!
And she is standing up to everything!
I really mean everything!
Being silly!
Making cake balls. (Not a kid-friendly activity-just sayin)
Doing the dishes.
We went to our first pro-football game! Go 49ers! They lost and it was kind of a boring game (like no one was scoring) but hey, we were there!!!!!
Emma started her first day of school. I can't believe I have a child in kindergarten! I miss her everyday and I totally cried when I dropped her off. Love her!
Cute Sunday outfit! And sometimes we cry about it.
Family bike rides! Livvy usually doesn't make it. (And her helmet is way too big!)

And we made it through canning season. 43 pears and 30 peaches!
Thanks for stopping by! Hope all is well with all of you!

Your trip looks like so much fun that I want to have a family get-a-away!
I am so glad that you are feeling better.
Oh, and, by the way, if you will teach me the secret to girls, I will teach you the secret to boys!
