Wonderful Weekend

We've had a whirlwind of a week and a half, but it's been great.  From June 19th - 22nd we were lucky enough to have Danny's older brother & his family come to visit us.  The best part of the trip was simply seeing the cousins around each other -- especially Berkley & Kaelah crawling all over the place.  Those two (less than 2 months apart in age) made me want to adopt twins!
Kaelah really liked the fan at the Denver Museum of Nature and Science (above) and both Berkley & Kaelah liked crawling up the stairs.  I'm in the background because neither one of them are free from falling down them yet.  (:

While Brennen, Jill, Carter & Berkley went to another baseball game, Danny, Kaelah, & I went to Barb & Mark's wedding celebration.  It was absolutely fantastic -- probably the best wedding I've ever been to b/c it was so uplifting.  We walked away feeling full of faith & more in love than when we walked in.  Thank you, Barb!!!
Here's a great picture at the ball game.  Smiths are good looking!
These two kept me quite entertained.  Above they are playing with a ball machine and below they are feeding each other at the Cheesecake Factory.

It may be hard to tell, but this is supposed to be a dinosaur nest at the museum.  They are all doing their own thing, but having a blast!

Hooray for good old American baseball -- & family!!!

Sarah,
That looks like so much fun. It looks like you had a great weekend. Kaelah is so cute. I want to have twins too! You will probably have better luck than me.

Happy 250th Birthday

Please enjoy the following sunrise hike photos courtesy of Michelle.  You will not find me leaving the house at 3:00am to hike with friends but I am proud of my middle children when they do. Can an Independence Day blog post be complete without some time at the ball fields?  Natalie has her final tournament of the season and it was bittersweet to see the girls play so well but knowing this was the last chance they would have together before some of the girls (N included) aged out. I will always appreciate these coaches, players, and their families for truly making something special.  Pool play day was sunny and hot. My alarm went off at 5:30am to be at 7:00am warm ups an hour away. The first game was close but didn’t end the way we would have liked. The second game the girls took a solid beating and then after leading most of the third game, it ended in a tie. Natalie did some great work in the outfield and knows how to make those pitchers work when she hits those foul ba...

Precious Pumpkin

Our Halloween pictures finally made it to the computer. I won't state the name, but let's just say we know a certain 15-month-old who likes to hide things, especially if they are small & silver like a memory card reader. (: Oh look, here she is now, dressed up as a pumpkin fairy! And check out the super neat pumpkin Danny carved. We actually had neighbors make the effort to come compliment him before trick-or-treating began! I have never experienced a Halloween where families hang out on the porch to hand out candy the entire night! I just can't get over how wonderful the weather has been this fall. If there weren't long term consequences, I could really like global warming. Here's the cute little girl helping to hand out candy. She was a huge hit with the teenage trick-or-treaters. My favorite costume of the night was a guy dressed up as a kissing booth. When Dan asked him if that was working for him he replied, "I got a kiss from a 6-year-old ...

Some Explaining

Well, the time has come. We finally got the gutts to take an intentional photograph of what is soon to be a new addition to the family. Surprised? Well, if you haven't seen me in person lately, you should be! And yes, Dan & I were quite surprised too! A couple months after we brought Danny J. home from the hospital, I noticed how much more tired I was waking up in the middle of the night with him than I was when Kaelah was a newborn. I kept asking myself, is there really that big of a difference between ages 26 & 28? I didn't think anything of my period coming late b/c both Dan & I were complaining of nausea. Eventually I went to our family practice doctor & said, "I'm either pregnant or something is wrong with me that I want you to fix!" We ran the blood work & called the fertility specialist after he told me the rapid test came back VERY pink. From then we did the same thing we had done before. Held our breath & took LOTS of medi...
