We had a ton of fun last weekend. Here's a few of the things we were up to:
Friday night Jas and I went to an adult birthday party for a great lady from church, Saturday the kids and I went to the local parade then to the library, Saturday night we had friends over for dinner, Sunday night Kaden and I went to the fireworks and Monday we enjoyed having another day off! Hurray for Independence Day Weekend!

Milestones

Today is our 10 year anniversary...TEN years! WOW! I'm not that old, how can that be? I'm very proud of how far we've come and what we've made of our life. It hasn't/isn't always easy, but I know we're both changing and God is working on us individually and as a couple, for the betterment of our marriage and our family. Thank you Jesus!


In other news...Kaden learned to ride his bike without training wheels last night. See?




I also joyfully harvested the "first fruits" of our garden this week. They just happened to be two 5 inch banana peppers. I'm not sure what I'm going to do with the other 5+ banana peppers that are hanging there. The past two I put on top of hash brown quiche and nachos.

Our tomato plants have 40+ tomatoes growing on them! I'm anxiously awaiting canning day, when I'm hoping to have lovely cans of red sauce to show you!
Hmmm...what else has happened since that day long ago when I last posted? Let's see...both kids currently have their toes painted. Yes, I said both. It was hard to get Marin to get past her fear that the polish was going to hurt. Kaden on the other hand, begged me to paint his, even after the "other people may make fun of you" chat. He sat very still.
Think that's all for now. I'll try not to be a stranger, but, as it is summer...not sure that's a promise I can keep!
