PHOTO FRIDAY: Vacation Edition/Table Rock Lake

Hallie and I spent the past five days with Grandma and Grandpa at The Wilderness Club at Big Cedar where they are members.  We had a wonderful time relaxing, boating, swimming and making memories together.  The temps were in the upper 70's/low 80's the whole time...sorry my Nebraska peeps :)  I know you were suffering through a May snowstorm while we were gone.

Here are some pictures of our adventure...

Swimming in the waterfall pool with Grandma

Morning snuggles with Grandpa

 

Lots of fun on the pontoon boat

S'mores around the campfire

Blueberry waffles with strawberries and whipped cream for breakfast!

Catching up on the last few weeks...

Our little Easter egg hunter

I found an egg Grammulls!

  Watering the plants with Daddy

We finally picked out a new couch for our living room and Finnley is a HUGE fan

Special cupcakes for my special birthday girl :)  If you're looking for a light, lemony, fruity cupcake for this spring, check out the recipe here

 
She is a BIG fan of crackers and all things carbohydrate related :)





















Love her and her skinny little tummy!

PHOTO FRIDAY!

Sorry it's been awhile :)  Here's a photo recap of our week...

Hallie loves to stand at the window in the dining room and watch Finn when he's outside

Grandma and Kate came out on Monday and those two girls CANNOT get enough of Grandma!  When she's around nobody else matters

Just enjoying the sunpatch in the empty dining room 

Walking around with blocks in her mouth is the latest craze

Hal and Daddy love to walk around the house and point out all the different people in the picture frames

After bath smooches with Mommy

Hal gained access to the laundry room (the door is usually closed) and was excited to discover my Chuck's.  She has a bit of a shoe obsession already...uh oh

We try to "facetime" Daddy on our iPhones every day, so every time I take out my phone Hallie starts saying "Dadda."  That is what she is saying in this picture :)

Hallie is officially a "walker."  No more crawling for our little nugget.  I love the look of determination on her face in this picture.  I've seen that same look on her dad's face several times :)









 

Turning ONE in less than two weeks!  Such a beauty 

PHOTO FRIDAY

Enjoy our photo recap of the last week...

Kate and Hallie enjoying the splish splash station at the Children's Museum.

Self-timer family picture before our Valentine's fondue.  The flowers in the background were a special gift to Hallie and Mommy from Daddy.

One of Hallie's favorite things to do these days is sneak into the bathroom and unravel the toilet paper or pull out the tissues one by one.

Sooooo big!

Kisses for Daddy during breakfast.

Always making a silly face these days.

Once again, enjoy the photo recap of our week...

Taking a ride in the laundry basket

 
Saturday play date with Lia and Rose!  We had a great time sippin' wine and trying to plan our camping trip while wrangling the girls :)

My momma with Stef and the newest grandbaby, Liam, at his older brother Landon's 3rd birthday party.

My brother Josh and his son, Liam...matching blue eyes.

A meeting of the youngest minds in our family

Not a great quality picture, but I just love how happy my dad and Hallie look.  After she warms up to him, Grandpa always seems to make her giggle

 "Reading" the Very Hungry Catapillar.  I didn't bother pointing out to her that it was upside down :)

Eating snacks off the ground

Hal didn't appreciate being left out of Kate's photo shoot

All was forgiven when they got to take a bath in the big jacuzzi

Very attached to her Rudolph still

PHOTO FRIDAY!

Enjoy the photo recap of our week...

Yay, Daddy's home!
