Recent Favs

I take more pictures with my iPhone than with the camera lately and so I just wanted to share a few recent favs.

Getting ready to kick some butt on the soccer field!

 This was the morning I was leaving for Frankenmuth.  Stella and Wes were snuggling and then they both readjusted in the same way a few minutes later!

 My heart just about exploded when I went to check on our girls one night and Stella was sleeping with our family picture!
 Shopping with my nephew for some of his birthday presents.  I don't ever get one-on-one time with him and it was so nice! I think I want to make this a thing with him and with Sophie because it was just so fun.  Maybe it can just be a lunch date or something so they can still have some birthday surprises.
 Playing Go Fish on one of our many LAZY summer days!
 Modeling a new outfit from Nana and Papa. 
 Daddy learning to do pigtails!

Will at his birthday party!

Our Visit to Put-In-Bay

Wednesday, June 5th the Jet Express had discounted ferry tickets to Put-In-Bay so we made plans to have a (mostly) girls' day with Nana, Aunt Ashley, Will, Sophie, Aunt Shirley, Aunt Brittany, Reese, Lindsay, Payne, Carter and Carol.  We met up in Port Clinton and bought tickets for $5 round trip for the adults and the kids were FREE!!!!! It is usually $22 round trip for adults!  We got there early but not quite early enough to make the 9:15 ferry so we went on the 10:00 one.  While we waited we went to a cute little coffee shop and got some treats.

 En route!
 These are a little out of order because I loaded iPhone pics and camera pics separately.  This was at lunch at the Upper Deck.
 The ride over.
We started the day by playing on the huge playground that is in the park right when you get off the Jet but I didn't take any pictures of this.

 Cruising on the golf cart.



I really love this picture! I just love how Mya and Ash are looking at each other!










 My mom, Ash and her kids went up to the top of Perry's Monument and so the rest of us had fun on the steps and running up and down the hill!





 Oh, Reese! You are tooooooo cute!

 Trying out Reese's stroller!
 At lunch!




 Next stop, the butterfly house!







 Then we just cruised the island for a while on our two carts.  We had one 6 person cart and one 8 person cart.  The girls loved the freedom of no car seats and we just held onto them tight!


We ended the trip with some yummy hard serve ice cream.  We were exhausted by the time we got home at 6:30!  It was a fun day!
