girl days.

Days after we got back from Colorado Dominic had to turn around and go back to Colorado haha!  It was a work conference and we had lots going on that weekend: Alicia's wedding and Kayden's birthday - so we stayed in town and had "girls days".  Daddy is totally the chef in the house - I try but I am definitely a baker .. not a cook lol.  Sooo, we survived on easy dishes for a few days ;) like colored pasta.  Whoohoo =D  A few shots of the goofy (...oh yeah, and Dozie).

colorado trip.

We went up to Colorado in July and found more water hahaha =D.  She loves it, what can we say. 

besties in sprinklers.

A bestie day.  We finally got our yard going last summer, and we looooved having somewhere to play and soak up the sun.  A sprinkler day and lunch =).

goofy girl.

A couple quick shots of her being a goof.  The top two are at Dominic's indoor flag football games that he plays - she loves to go be cheerleader =)

fun at the pool.

Some more of our fun at the pool.  Kayden loves the water.  She would stay in there all day if she could .. seriously!  We always think she'll get worn out .. nope .. she's 99% fish I'm pretty sure..

our family pictures.

In July we stopped by one of our favorite little spots right near Grandma Mary & Grandpa Gary's (where our ceremony is being held =D), and set up the tripod to catch a few shots.

She's stinking cute if I do say so myself ;)

She loved it.  She is so sweet and helpful and had a blast pushing the timer button and running to daddy with me to hurry and say cheese <3

family dinner.

Dominic, Chris, and Grandpa Gary all have birthdays within a week in July - so we enjoyed a nice big family dinner to celebrate them and their oldness ;)

First ice cream cone.  Love that little tongue =D

4th of July!

 I can't believe I am still so far behind lol!  Someday I will be caught up and the holidays will actually be recent lol!!  Oh well... for now - here is a glimpse at our last 4th of July haha.

( 7 - 4 ) hahaha!

We can't wait to get back to the pool!  Kayden was just asking yesterday - "I go sim, sim, sim??"  I tried to explain to her that we will go again in the summer when it's hot outside and she sweetly answered, "Ok Mommy!"  She's melting my heart these days with her sweet mannerisms and compassion.  All the time she'll ask, "you ok dayii?" if she hears us coughing, or if someone says "I don't feel good" or something of the sort, she's quick to come give you loving and say "Poor mommy!" Such a sweet little thing!  We're so proud of her! <3
