Savannah Rides a Bike!

This summer has been awesome, and even more so now that Savannah learned how to ride her bike without training wheels!  She's been working at this for awhile now, and we are so proud of her!  Once she got the balancing part down, she was off and riding!  Not we can't stop her!

Of course being Miss Sentimental I couldn't help but pull up a picture of her riding her first tricycle and do a comparison :)  Where is the time going??!!  I'm working on adding a video, so stay tuned!

CA Trip

My Mom, the girls and I took a trip to CA in July to visit my Grandma.  It was an action packed week and it was great to be able to see family and old friends.  Here are pictures from the trip!

4th of July!

We had a fantastic 4th of July for our first year in Carnation.  I just love our little town.  The girls had a blast driving their decked out jeep in the kiddie parade, and the rest of the days festivities.  We also celebrated Derek's 40th Birthday!  It was a relaxing day with just our family, and all around perfect.
