Colton's ONE-Year Pictures

Colton turns ONE on Wednesday!  I took the kids to JCPenney's this week to get Colton's 1-year pictures taken, and also got a few with Summer too.  Summer was an angel posing for all the pictures....but my soon to be 1-year-old wanted to be constantly on the move!  Our amazing photographer Natalia managed to capture some good ones despite my active toddler!  Thankfully my mom was with us and could help by keeping the kids entertained while I chose which pictures to order (Thanks, mom!)  Here are a few of my favorites from the day.....we decided to order "Colton 6", "Sibling 1", and "Summer 4". :-)

Happy Easter!

Last weekend was Easter, and we had a busy and fun weekend remembering our Lord's sacrifice and seeing family.  We started the weekend with Good Friday service.  On Saturday we went to Uncle Ty and Auntie Sarah's house with Grandma and Grandpa T and Javonte.  We had fun doing and Easter egg hunt, coloring eggs, and going to the park.  On Sunday, after going to Uncle Ty and Auntie Sarah's church, we headed over to the Bjorklunds for lunch and an Easter basket hunt with Grandma and Grandpa K, Auntie Kristin and Uncle Eric, and Eric's family.  We are so blessed to have such a great "extra" family in Eric's family and are so excited that Kristin and Eric will be getting married THIS MONTH! :-)


Looking for eggs!

Colton first had more fun taking eggs out of his basket...

But he learned how to put them in too!

Summer could color the eggs all by herself this year!

I love this daddy daughter picture!
So adorable....Grandpa and Summer!

Fun to look back....

We love our jogging/park-date buddies Ms. Rachael, Adry, and Rylan.  Today we went running with them and played at Kelley Park.  The pictures Ms. Rachael took today of the kids reminded me of the ones last year...
